Welcome!

Celebrating Abilities Inc. started as a support group located in southwest Florida for parents of children with different abilities. We are no longer active as a group because we've all moved on to other areas of the United States. I've decided to keep the blog active so that information can be shared with our loyal families and some new ones, too.

I checked in with the Autism Speaks website this morning and found this awesome resource. Its a wonderful piece about what families that have children with Autism are facing.
