☕🚚 Espresso Geaux Came to Town! 🚚☕

In celebration of Autism Awareness & Acceptance Month, we had the incredible Espresso Geaux coffee truck roll up to our Gonzales Mercy Autism Center to treat our amazing team to some well-deserved sips and smiles! 💙

This month, and every month, we want to recognize the Behavior Technicians and Board Certified Behavior Analysts who work tirelessly to support and uplift our clients and their families. Their dedication, compassion, and heart make all the difference — they are truly our miracle workers. 🌟

From your favorite latte to that extra shot of espresso (you earned it!), this was just a small token of our huge appreciation.

Thank you for everything you do — we see you, we celebrate you, and we are beyond grateful for each of you. 💙

🌟 April is Autism Awareness and Acceptance Month 🌟

At Mercy Autism Center, we are committed to creating a world that understands, supports, and celebrates individuals on the autism spectrum. This month, and every month, we strive to raise awareness and foster acceptance, ensuring that every person—regardless of their differences—feels valued and empowered.

💙 Autism is a spectrum, and every individual’s experience is unique. By promoting understanding, we can help break down barriers, reduce stigma, and provide the support needed for individuals and families to thrive.

🤝 Let’s work together to create an inclusive world where everyone’s strengths are celebrated, and their challenges are met with compassion and support.

Join us this month as we spread kindness, educate ourselves, and champion the message of acceptance for those with autism. Together, we can make a difference! 💙✨

🌟 **Celebrating a Big Achievement** 🌟

As we enter Autism Awareness and Acceptance Month, we’re thrilled to share a beautiful success story that fills our hearts with pride. One of our incredible learners, Penguin (name changed for privacy), has officially graduated from his ABA program at Mercy! 🎓✨

Penguin has worked tirelessly, put in the time, and committed to achieving his goals—and now, he’s reaping the rewards. This graduation wasn’t just about a certificate, it was about all the growth, effort, and dedication he’s shown along the way. We couldn’t be more proud of him and are beyond excited to see where his future takes him. 🌈💪

A standout moment from his graduation party that we'll always remember: When asked if he’d come back to Mercy, he confidently responded with a resounding, “NOPE!” 😄👏

Penguin, best of luck in all your future endeavors—you are truly going places! The whole Mercy family is rooting for you. 🚀💙
