Join me in my efforts to support Autism Speaks! I have been running Disney Races since the 2017 Princess 10K followed by the Princess Half Marathon in 2018, the Wine & Dine Half in 2018, the Wine & Dine Two Course Challenge in 2019, and my proudest accomplishment the 30 years of Running 2023 Walt Disney World Marathon 2023.
This year I have decided is was time to attempt to meet a new goal - support a charity that touches the lives of my patients, friends, and family!
In my work as a clinical psychologist with a specialty in pediatric, clinical child, and sleep psychology, I serve many families touched by the gifts and challenges of autism. Autism, or autism spectrum disorder, refers to a range of conditions characterized by challenges with social skills, repetitive behaviors, speech and nonverbal communication.
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.
Autism Speaks enhances lives today and is accelerating a spectrum of solutions for tomorrow.
Thank you for helping me reach my goal. Your support is greatly appreciated!
