Autism Empowerment - Welcome to our YouTube Channel

In this video, Karen Krejcha, Executive Director and co-founder of Autism Empowerment welcomes viewers to our new YouTube channel. Autism Empowerment is a 501(c)3 nonprofit dedicated to enriching and empowering the lives of children, teens, adults and families within the Autism and Asperger communities. The vision we work toward is an inclusive society that accepts and respects all youth and adults on the autism spectrum and empowers each person to reach his or her highest potential. We offer innovative and inspiring programs, training and services as well as opportunities for leadership and volunteerism for those within and supporting the Autism and Asperger community. Our work is guided by our Four Foundational Pillars of Positivity: Accept Enrich Inspire Empower Everyone on our Board of Directors is on the autism spectrum or closely related to someone who is. We are proactive autism allies that believe each one of us is an Ambassador for Acceptance of All Abilities in our home, in our family, in our community and in the world. You will find us collaborating with and supporting other autism and cross-disability related organizations around the world. We also work with people, businesses and organizations that are not autism related to help their members better understand the strengths and challenges in daily life for individuals on the autism spectrum. http://www.AutismEmpowerment.org
