At Itineris, clients are preparing for Valentine’s Day in style! With expert guidance from Rachelle Bland of Baltimore Blossoms Studio, they learned to arrange flowers, mixing colors and textures to create stunning displays.

This Valentine’s Day activity was the perfect opportunity to practice fine motor skills, like peeling petals and arranging stems, while creating special, handmade gifts for loved ones.

Which flower is your favorite?

As we celebrate Black History Month, we honor Black autistic & neurodivergent leaders who are changing narratives, shaping history, and inspiring communities worldwide through their advocacy for race, disability, and justice.

Despite their continuing efforts and advocacy, they still face many barriers:
• Autism is often underdiagnosed or misdiagnosed in Black communities
• Autistic traits are more likely to be punished than supported
• Limited access to culturally responsive care and accommodation
• Racial stereotypes that can mask or distort autistic traits

This week, we’d like to highlight both Simone Biles and Lois Curtis. As the most decorated gymnast in history and someone with ADHD, Simone understands the meaning of hard work and of accepting your whole, authentic self. Lois Curtis, a developmentally disabled artist who had been institutionalized unwillingly for many years, became the lead plaintiff in the landmark Supreme Court case Olmstead v. L.C. Because she chose to stand up in court, disabled individuals won the right to choose their own homes in 1999.

These individuals are championing environments where Black autistic & neurodivergent people are seen, valued, and empowered, and we are honored to share their stories with you this month.

Last week on WNST.net's “Cup of Soup or Bowl” segment highlighting nonprofits in Baltimore, host Nestor Aparicio sat down with Senior Director of Operations Ariyanna Anderson and Board President PJ Shafer at Costas Inn to discuss autism, advocacy, and the mission and services at Itineris. As a parent of an autistic individual, PJ shared what led to his son’s diagnosis, while Ariyanna spoke on the benefits of Itineris: as a service provider focused solely on autistic adults, Itineris designs person-centered living and learning programs with 360-degree staff support.

Thank you to Nestor and BaltimorePositive.com for having us on air to share our message of inclusivity and empowerment!

For the third consecutive year, Executive Director Lauren Eaton and Neurodiversity and Advocacy Partner Katelyn Szymanski partnered with Dr. Sydnee Chavis and UMD’s School of Dentistry to engage students in a critical conversation about dental access for autistic and disabled people. The discussion focused on how systems, environments, and professional practices are often designed without disabled people in mind, and how that systemic ableism creates unnecessary barriers to care. We shared stories of successes and challenges, which led to productive clinical brainstorming that expanded our collective practice.

Together, students examined how traditional dental settings can be overwhelming, and explored strengths-based, person-centered approaches that honor autonomy, communication differences, sensory needs, and lived expertise. The focus was on adaptation and multidisciplinary collaboration so dental care can be safer, more accessible, and more affirming.

By reframing access as a shared responsibility, future providers can move beyond accommodation toward true inclusion in oral healthcare.

We successfully completed the first Winter Retreat for Itineris! Staff and clients spent a weekend at Camelback Resort in Pennsylvania, enjoying tubing and snowboarding, many of them for the very first time. Clients stepped outside their comfort zones, pushed past nerves, and created unforgettable memories. We are incredibly proud of them for embracing new skills and new adventures.

We also heard from a parent who praised the Itineris team for their dedication and commitment, even in the face of inclement weather: “While cutting the trip short was a difficult decision, it was the right one. Please let everyone know how thankful I am that they gave up a nice, warm weekend to give my son a new experience. This is one of the many things that set Itineris above the rest!”

Thank you to our team who continue to empower autistic adults to live their most meaningful lives!
