Jace & Jet...

We have pledged to become advocates for and spread awareness about Autism ever since our first child, Jace, was diagnosed just before the age of 3.  Years later, our youngest son Jet was also diagnosed. Although this journey has not been easy, we wouldn't trade it for anything. Therefore, we want to utilize our experiences to educate, inform, and comfort the families and friends of others with Autism.  We believe that Jace & Jet along with the many other children diagnosed with Autism have so much to offer, therefore they should Never be Underestimated.

Our Goal...

Our goal is to provide content in the form of discussions, interviews, and literature to share our experiences and provide resources for those who have loved ones diagnosed with Autism and for others who just want to learn more about this ever evolving topic.
