Our mission is to help you find resources and events for adults and children with autism and other disabilities throughout the state of Tennessee.
Parents have enough to juggle and finding resources, therapies, social events, and support groups can be difficult. We want to fill the void and bring as many of the resources and events to one location to help you find them easier. You can go to our Resources page to look up your city and see what's available. You can look on our calendar and see what's happening near you. We follow, search, look up, pay attention and pursue small agencies, mom and pop organizations, as well as the big non-profits to get their information to you!
We also PROVIDE services. These services include IEP consultations, troubleshooting for issues with schools, face to face advocacy meetings and trainings, parent trainings, behavior consultations and plans. Check out our Advocacy and Education pages to see tips and tricks to help with many issues you may have with your child's special education. Please contact us to find out more info on these services.
