“Once you find TACA, you are never alone!" –Kiele Pennington

Having a child diagnosed with autism can be devastating and isolating, but with encouragement from so many amazing TACA families, the Pennington Family has found HOPE and effective treatments for their daughter Kili. Now, they will help TACA provide REAL HELP NOW to new families living with autism by asking their family and friends to give during the Family & Friends Campaign.

Be inspired and donate today or take “Action” during the month of April and create a family page to share your autism story and help TACA reach our goal of $150,000 by June.

Every donation, big or small, will help further TACA’s mission to educate, empower, support and connect families with the resources they need to secure the best possible future for their children living with autism.

How can you help? TACA has several ways to activate during autism action month!
