When he was a senior in high school, he heard something about autism that reminded that of himself, so he came to me, and I researched it myself, and I agreed with him. So, my husband and I decided to get him tested, and he was correct; he was autistic. Even after the diagnosis, he continued to graduate with a high school diploma; we were so proud of him. Who would have known that a high school diploma would be caused a lot of limitations? We found out organizations that are geared toward autistic people wouldn't accept him because he had a diploma. So, I decided to create a safe space for autistic children and adults, a place of their own. I don't want any other child to feel alone like my son did during high school or feel like their being punished for having a high school diploma like Mike. Even though creating JAS has been a great experience for myself and my team , we still need help. We need donations, volunteers, and any other help. Please inbox, call or email anything that would be greatly appreciated.
