Dear Reader,

Do you care deeply about families impacted by autism?
Are you wanting to be more involved in self advocacy as an autistic individual? Are you passionate about building a more inclusive, informed, and supportive community?

We’re looking for compassionate, creative, and committed individuals to join our Board of Directors. No nonprofit experience? No problem—just bring your time, your voice, and your desire to make a difference.

What’s in it for you?​
✅ A chance to guide meaningful autism programs
✅ Opportunities to grow as a leader
✅ A front-row seat to real community impact
✅ Connections with others who care just as much as you do

Whether you're an autistic individual yourself, parent, community leader, professional, or simply someone who wants to help—we’d love to hear from you.

If this is something you want to know more about: reach out to me at director@rtaaf.org.

One of my heroes, Helen Keller said, "Alone we can do so little; together we can do so much."
