Advancing Connections in the Autism Community

The Capital Area Autism Network (CAAN) is committed to addressing the most pressing and impactful needs of the Autism community in the Baton Rouge area through connection, opportunity, and advocacy.

THE SILO TAX

When systems don’t talk, families pay.

When the systems around autistic individuals don't communicate, families pay the price in time, money, and missed opportunities. We call this the Silo Tax — the hidden cost of fragmented support. CAAN exists to eliminate it by advancing connections, promoting opportunities, and advocating for our community across every stage of life.

Three ways we build a more inclusive Capital Area.
