Speakers: The Peter Henriques Family/The Mark Inay Family

With a lot of hard work and commitment, some kids on the spectrum are able to thrive. This presentation we will showcase two families whose autistic children are doing exceptionally well. During this special evening you will hear:

• The musical talent of Cole Henriques, an 9 year old piano virtuoso. Cole’s parents, Peter and Sherri, will be on hand to discuss how they helped their son overcome his medical issues so that his gift of music could be realized and developed.

Keahi Inay, a Senior at Campbell High School, discuss growing up on the spectrum. A track champion, Keahi is thriving both on the field and in the classroom. For a sneak preview on Keahi’s life, check out this video clip: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aNu1kJ4nEto

Mark and Tara Inay, Keahi’s parents, discuss what they did to support their child’s success.

As we celebrate the achievements of these autistic kids, we hope you will leave encouraged about the prospects for your own keiki. Please feel free to bring your family, loved ones, teachers, therapists and friends to this very special and inspirational event.
