I am the mother of an 8 year old son with autism. Twice a month I teach rhythmic movement to individuals in wheelchairs and I teach 2 cooking classes a month to adults with autism. I am also the Founder/CEO of F.A.C.E. (Facing Autism with Children Everywhere). We've been in existence since January of 2013 and in January of 2014 we opened our respite care center "F.A.C.E.'s Place". We care for approximately 10 children per session that range from high functioning to severe autism and Down's Syndrome. Ever since my son received his diagnosis, I've been extremely passionate about serving the special needs community.
