About Mandy's Farm for Autistic Women

Our Mission

The mission of Mandy's Special Farm is to provide residential services for women with autism with dignity and respect, and through a safe, structured, healthy, home-like environment. Residents are encouraged to reach their full potential, feeling safe, secure, needed, and wanted. And the hope? That these young women with autism will lead a better life - and their parents will find peace of heart and mind.

Our History

A private nonprofit organization, Mandy's Special Farm was conceived and created to provide women with autism a place they can call home for the rest of their lives. A place where these women, can learn and grow, find purpose and peace, surrounded by the kind of love and care a parent would insist on - because a parent, just like you, has made the commitment to provide it to your daughter, who's just like her own.

A Promise From Ruthie

Ruthie Robbins has invested years - and raised over $1 million - to secure her dream of a brighter, better life for her daughter Mandy and other women with autism. As a result, Mandy's Special Farm stands today as a model of residential living for women with disabilities in the United States.
