We are proud to partner with you!3.5.26. A significant portion of our work by our team at Autism Everyone is completed behind the scenes, whether that’s calling newly diagnosed families to offer support and resources, or being out in the community to attend meetings. But this one requires a little back story. 🫶🏻In early February, our friends at Aurora Evansville reached out for available resources for a vulnerable teenager on the spectrum.
