Our Approach

Our Approach

We want to create a space where families with autistic children can come to an event with their kids and speak openly with other like parents and exchange ideas and experiences. Families can also have access to expert resources and talk about some of the issues they are facing so they don’t have to feel alone. But most importantly, we learn more about our autistic children by speaking to other autistic people and children in the community.

We aim to help families celebrate their autistic children for their uniqueness and for being different hosting events, indoors and outdoors with safe events that inspire their children and help them to bond with other children just like them.
