Christina Hilton, co-founder and CFO of AutismUp, was named Rochester’s 2026 Remarkable Woman by News 8 (WROC) during Women’s History Month. Hilton helped start AutismUp more than 20 years ago alongside other parents who were searching for support after their children were diagnosed with autism. What began as a small grassroots effort has grown into an organization that now offers more than 100 programs and serves hundreds of participants each week. Hilton continues to play a key role in advancing AutismUp’s mission and strengthening opportunities for individuals with autism and their families in our community.
