Please join me in my efforts to support Autism Speaks!
Autism, or autism spectrum disorder, refers to a range of conditions characterized by challenges with social skills, repetitive behaviors, speech and nonverbal communication. The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) estimates 1 in 54 children is on the autism spectrum.
A number of my students face these challenges everyday. They motivate me to be the best version of myself. These kids are hardworking, kind, helpful, confident, and always team players. I am dedicated to these individuals and I LOVE my relationship with them. They are my reason for pushing myself to run my first 10k at Disney World!
Autism Speaks is dedicated to promoting solutions, across the spectrum and throughout the lifespan, for the needs of individuals with autism and their families through advocacy and support; increasing understanding and acceptance of autism spectrum disorder; and advancing research into causes and better interventions for autism spectrum disorder and related conditions. They empower people with autism and their families with resources, online tools and information covering the life span.
Thank you for helping me reach my goal. I truly appreciate all of your support.
