Around the time Southwest Autism Research and Resource Center (SARRC) was founded, the incidence of an autism diagnosis was 1 in 500; today it is 1 in 36.

This summer I started a new career at Southwest Autism Research and Resource Center in Phoenix! My new position is working as a behavior therapist in a preschool setting classroom at SARRC. SARRC is an absolutely amazing company that allows me to work in an inclusive classroom where we have students both with and without Autism. Our company is raising money and awareness with a fitness-based event. I have such a passion for helping those with Autism Disorder and a passion for furthering my knowledge about the disorder, so supporting this event is extremely important to me!

This year, I am participating in YES Day Walk for Autism to raise critical autism funding not only for SARRC but for other nonprofit autism organizations throughout the state as well. Importantly, all dollars raised will be kept in Arizona for Arizona.

I’d love any and all help to reach my fundraising goal!! ð’œð©·â¤ï¸ð§¡ð’›ð’ð©µð’™ð§©
