Amazing and Brilliant Minds...  That is what our children have.  Children on the spectrum have awesome abilities and giftings that are often overlooked and ignored.  We are standing as a body of people on the spectrum or related to people/ children on the spectrum,  believing that amazing and brilliant capabilities are more of a focus than the "disability" label so many put on us.  Many would say it is a question of weather the glass is half empty or half full, but we say the glass is completely …

I started this group because I could not find one in existence. The purpose of the group is to enable AC communication device users to speak to the world around them. Exchanging ideas on how best to use the device, to find personal mentors, and to cultivate personal growth in individuals who communicate with assistive technology.

The group has been updated to reflect the changes from my email below the original description of the group.  I will modify this page again in a few weeks. This is the original description of my purpose in starting this group: "I love to hike, but I have kids that are 9 and 11 . . . and they DON'T. I was in several other OC hiking groups, but most of the hikes happen when I would either need to get a sitter or drag the boys with us. So I finally decided to start a group to pull together others w …
