This is a song I’ve sung to Jaden since he was a baby. Several years ago, he started to sing along with me.
People ask me all the time, “Does Jaden communicate with you?” The answer, of course, is yes. He just has his own mysterious and incredibly beautiful language. ❤️

This is a picture of our co-founder Vincent and his beautiful daughter Izzy! She is autistic and non-verbal. On Friday, Izzy was hungry and typed on her keyboard "I want fettuccini"! To Vincent and many other parents, this is a miracle!
In January 2003, Karen Simmons,(one of our co-founders) invited others who are connected to Autism to send articles, poems, and stories for publication in a book titled "The Autism Experience, Stories of Hope and Love".

The word “Autism” refers to a spectrum of symptoms and disorders. This means that the available treatments will never be ‘one size fits all’. It is important to realize that in the autistic and neurodiverse community, each individual requires different types of support.
We intend to tackle our goal using these three parts. The Autism Today Channel, The ARTS Network, and The Learning and Education Division. Be sure to check out our website to learn more! And follow us for more content and information about events and services!
