Mentor Program
Parent to Parent Support
TACA Parent Mentors are autism parents who volunteer their time to offer one-on-one support and resources about autism-related topics, such as; co-occurring conditions common in autism, nutritional and dietary support, insurance, obtaining services, navigating IEP’s (Individualized Education Program), therapies, and more.
Our amazing TACA Mentors have been TACA members for 2+ years and are parents and caregivers – just like you. With their experience, our TACA mentors are eager to guide diagnosed parents on how to gain services, support families looking into starting the GFCF (Gluten Free Casein Free) diet, help families navigating IEP’s and answer questions regarding various medical interventions.
We are excited to launch the reopening of TACA's Mentor Program this May 2024. As we anticipate a large demand of Mentees entering the program, we will be matching everyone on a tiered first come, first serve basis. Please join the waitlist below to get started!

Mentors need to be parents of a child diagnosed with ASD, or of whom they have conservatorship. Mentors must have two or more years experience on the autism journey, be an active TACA Member and have had their own TACA Mentor previously.
