Where to Find Autism Community Resources Through KindTree-Autism Rocks

KindTree-Autism Rocks maintains a community resources section on kindtree.org that points to local, state, and national autism-related services, covering areas such as assessments, jobs, health, and social services. It is a starting point for autistic people and families in Eugene, OR and surrounding areas who need to locate a specific type of support, rather than a directory the organization delivers itself. If you are looking for a resource outside those categories, or outside Oregon, the site's list may not cover it.

What the resource section covers

The site describes its community resources as "Local, state, and national resources for autism assessments, jobs, health, social services, and more." That gives you four broad categories to expect:

• Assessments — where to pursue an autism evaluation
• Jobs — employment-related services and support
• Health — health services relevant to autistic people
• Social services — broader support programs

The "and more" wording means the list is not limited to those four, but the site does not publish a full inventory of every entry, so treat the categories as a guide rather than a complete index.

How to reach the resources

From the kindtree.org homepage, the resources are reachable through the Community Resources program block, which links to a "View Resources" page. The same homepage also links to support groups, events, and Friends & Family Camp, so if you land on the site looking for services, the Community Resources block is the one to follow.

A Spanish-language entry point is also offered: the homepage includes a "Vaya AQUÍ para español" link for Spanish speakers.

When this page is the right starting point

Use the KindTree resource list when you:

• Live in or near Eugene, OR and want providers or programs in that region
• Need a starting point for an autism assessment, employment help, health services, or social services
• Want state-level or national options in addition to local ones

Look elsewhere when you need a specific provider's current availability, insurance acceptance, or eligibility rules — the site presents the resource categories and links, not the details of each service.

Other KindTree programs that may answer a related need

If your question is less about referrals and more about connection, the same organization runs:

• Support groups for autistic adults, described as a place to build social skills, share coping strategies, and have fun
• Events including fundraisers, socials, parties, and expert presentations
• Friends & Family Camp, with registration timing announced on the site

These are programs KindTree runs directly, whereas the community resources section points outward to other organizations.
