The Impact of Chasing Inspiration: Individuals of all ages with ASD
There are many venues to explore where one can pursue inspiration for the purposes of contributing to the world, and making a life of well-being.

The art of Elaine Crowder, Trent Altman, Kevin Hosseini, and students at The Beacon Day School, and other artists who have autism will be featured at The Brilliance of Autism Exhibit at Autism One 2013 conference on May 21- 26.
