More recently the charity has expanded its service provision to include children and young people with autism.

Autism Sussex plans to expand and extend its services over the next few years including: more supported living accommodation, two further Café des Arts, additional resource centres, and family support and training facilities, for children, young people and adults with autism in both East and West Sussex. Charity Fundraising Ltd has initially been commissioned for a twelve month period to help raise funds for a number of these developments.
