To safely integrate families and children of Autism including others At-Risk, back into society through
LOVE and SUPPORT
one Step, one City, one ACRE at a time…
A — Autism/At-Risk C — Community/Leaders R — Responders/Medical E — Educators/Administration
There is a critical need for more progressive early intervention to adult life solution-based programs that will support the cognitive growth necessary to allow life skill development that leads to a more sustainable independent adult life.
Candyland Roadmap
We designed this map as a main resources tool to serve all of our A.C.R.E. communities. Playing a game like Candyland with your child at 2.5 years old is critical to help see the signs. Many families have stopped interacting with their child. They hand their phone to them and the child remains At-Risk. We are using the symbolism of the Candyland Game and the Roadmap to remind Families of At Risk, especially Autism, Community Leaders, Responders and Educators about seeing the signs earlier than 5 years old . We never want to meet an At-Risk family that needs help and not offer a Solution. This Roadmap offers a simple yet Safe Solutions on how to confidently RESPOND to At-Risk Communities, especially Autism from Prenatal until the Final Farewell of Life.
