Living with Autism Study
from Easter Seals

Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) affects nearly 1 in 150 children1, which presents an evolving set of educational, health, and financial challenges for families with autistic children. That’s why MassMutual has joined with Easter Seals to sponsor a new research study focused on the challenges of families living with Autism Spectrum Disorders. We hope this research will change the way the world understands children with Autism Spectrum Disorder by offering unique insights into how they live.

Key Findings from the Easter Seals Living With Autism study.

Easter Seals

MassMutual is committed to families with special needs and for the past 8 years has worked with Easter Seals, the country’s leading provider of services for people with autism.

The Easter Seals' Living with Autism study was released at a national press conference December 16, 2008. An archived webcast of the press conference can be viewed online.

MassMutual's SpecialCareSM Program

For families with Autism Spectrum Disorder, health concerns may only be the beginning. A solid financial future makes a positive difference in their lifestyle now and when parents can no longer care for their loved ones. The MassMutual SpecialCare program delivers resources and easy-to-use tools that make a real difference in the lives of people, as well as families, with disabilities and other special needs.
