We do the very best we can to help those who reach out to us, no matter what their immediate needs may be. We've donated more than 450 iPads for kids with autism for communication. We've sent hundreds of kids to Equine Therapy. We've helped hundreds of families get proper IEP help for their kids as well as help schools to better serve those children. We've provided legal help to those who couldn't afford it when their child's rights have been violated. We're working on education plans for kids from Preschool through College, to best prepare them to be happy, healthy, productive, and independent members of society to the very best of their potential and ability. We're also working with employers who have the vision to see the potential of individuals with autism and to develop programs within their companies to fill their workforce needs, using the strengths of those individuals. It's difficult to list everything we've done and continue to try to do .
