We have Jennifer Band, the President and Founder of the Autism Awareness Shop, Scott Band, Director of Online Operations and Ardena Bosley, the Community Liaison. Their goal is to increase the independence and improve the overall quality of life for individuals on the autism spectrum through gainful employment.
The success of this employment will be implemented by intensive and therapeutic on the job vocational skill building at actual retail establishments designed with supports in place. The Autism Awareness Shops serve to increase awareness and acceptance of those on the autism spectrum through community inclusion and demonstrating how every member of our community has something to contribute.
