Chris' Journey

Chris is a very confident young man with special needs due to autism. he found a happy and safe place in the local flying community that welcomed him with open arms.

Chris is a very confident young man with special needs due to autism. he found a happy and safe place in the local flying community that welcomed him with open arms.

On the flip side, having a kid with autism or special needs is not the end of the world. It is the beginning of a new leg of your journey of life.

Embrace it and help your child find that special safe space that will make them thrive. Chris' parents and others, I take my hat off to people like you who embrace the situation you find yourself in and give their kids as much love and support as they possibly can.
