The Fondation Autisme Luxembourg (FAL) was founded in June 1996 at the initiative of a group of parents directly affected by this handicap. They came together to deal with the lack of structures and services for people with autism that existed in Luxembourg. Their efforts were aimed at providing their children with a level of care that was adapted to their disability. This would allow them to develop their autonomy in a suitable living environment and quality. Since then, the aim of the Foundation is to promote and defend the rights of people with autism in Luxembourg, regardless of the severity of their disability.
The public-interest character of the foundation was recognized by a Grand-Ducal decree on October 6, 1996. In more than 20 years of activities, the Foundation has ensured that about 150 people help people with autism as well as their families on 3 different sites: Munshausen, Rambrouch and Capellen.
We work in close collaboration with the various State bodies as well as with other partners active in the disability field in Luxembourg to promote the inclusion of people on the margins of society.
We are also proud to have obtained the High Patronage of Her Royal Highness the Grand Duchess in April 2018. This gesture is a great proof of confidence toward the quality work that we provide in terms of diagnosis, support, training and care for teenagers or adults.
The Fondation Autisme Luxembourg is also a member of the association Autisme Europe as well as the association Don en Confiance.
