What began as a simple phone line—long before Google or social media—has become a lifeline for over 20,000 families a year.
In this inspiring episode, we celebrate the 25th anniversary of an autism support organization that started with one powerful mission: no parent should feel alone. From answering calls in the early days to building a vast resource database, this grassroots effort has blossomed into a beacon of hope for families navigating autism.
Discover how they’ve created inclusive family events—like aquarium visits and garden outings—where parents and children can finally feel safe, welcomed, and understood. You’ll also hear how they’ve pioneered autism training for first responders, ensuring EMTs, police, and firefighters can meet neurodiverse individuals with compassion and awareness.
This conversation is about community, courage, and the power of showing up—for each other, and for the next generation.
