About us
Families Feeling Supported and Less Alone
Our mission is to connect and support mothers and families raising autistic children in Richmond, Virginia, and surrounding communities through shared resources, encouragement, advocacy, and inclusive experiences.
Our story
Our community began as a Facebook group in June 2025, a simple place for local moms to find one another. As more families joined, it grew into an incorporated organization focused on helping families feel supported, understood, and less alone.
Our founder
Founded by Chante Holliday, a Richmond-area autism mom, Autism Moms of RVA Inc. grew from a desire to build meaningful connections for families navigating similar experiences.

Our values
- Belonging
- Respect
- Confidentiality
- Accessibility
- Community support
Organizational status
Autism Moms of RVA Inc. is incorporated in Virginia. Our application for federal 501(c)(3) tax-exempt status is pending.
