It makes me incredibly proud to work on this effort to bring awareness to the plight of people with autism. I believe that all people with autism should be given the opportunity to learn to communicate, receive a suitable academic education and experience social relationships.

After watching A Mother’s Courage: Talking Back to Autism  with my daughter, she turned to me and asked, “What if I wasn’t able to tell you I love you, mummy?”

As I thought about what that meant, for a mother not to be able to talk with her own child, I realized that I had to lend my voice to raise awareness of this rapidly increasing disorder. As a mother of three, I thought, how could I not help tell this story of another mother’s journey to discover her son; a journey of courage and determination to try to change the world for children with autism.

Individuals with autism can truly live a meaningful life. Please explore our website and learn more about the many ways you can help!
