As a parent of a delightful son on the autism spectrum, for 25 years I have participated with Kind Tree as a volunteer with the art program outreaching at community events and venues, hosting an adult peer support group, as well as helping with the annual Friends and Families Camp now engaging 250 campers, care providers, family members and volunteers. Currently I serve as the Kind Tree Board President.
My reason for continuing with Kind Tree includes my son, certainly. When I talk with other people experiencing autism, parents, caregivers and the folks we support at Camp, their first comment is, "This is the first time my client, or my child or myself feel accepted and allowed to be who we are."
Instead of saying, "You poor thing. How can we fix you," Kind Tree says, "So, you experience autism. What do you want to do?" Whether it is teaching skills or having fun, Kind Tree seeks to lift up all who seek us out.

Since 1997 KindTree - Autism Rocks has worked to provide a safe place for people with autism to be themselves and gain the self confidence we all need to move forward in our lives. Through our unique Autism Camp, our income producing Art Program, our long running Peer Support Group and more, our volunteers support success for people on the autism spectrum.
Friendships are made, families are connected, we all feel refreshed and more able to be in the world.
KindTree - Autism Rocks needs your support to expand our programs and better serve the growing population of people and families that can benefit from what we do together.
Thank you.
