Happy Wednesday everyone!☀️

Today a group of our clients had the opportunity to practice their bus riding skills and took a trip down to DRAIL, a non profit organization here in Modesto that assists adults with IDD in many areas such as independent skills training, housing assistance, peer support etc!

Fun Fact: one of our clients used to work for DRAIL, and our guide today is that same client’s sister! 😁😁

Happy World Autism Awareness Day! ♾️

April is also Autism Acceptance Month!

At VCDI & TCDI, a significant majority of our clients associate with the autism spectrum, which can be very vast and is quite diverse, as many clients have different behaviors, interests, etc.

Getting to watch our clients find themselves and discover their hobbies and interests has been such a privilege and we can’t wait to see who they become! 🫶🏼

Swipe to see what our clients believe autism means to them, as well as a fun blooper at the very end 👀😅
