As a local business owner, I am proud to give back to my community by supporting a cause that means so much to me personally.” Jeff P Vogan, RFC, CEP President/CEO of Premiere Wealth Advisors, LLC.
The Autism Walk and Resource Fair offers a fun and informative day filled with food trucks, children’s activities, a Zen Zone offered by Milestone Pediatrics for children who need a calming space, an autism community resource fair and much more.

Autism is a complex developmental disability that typically appears during the first three years of life and affects a person’s ability to communicate and interact with others. According to information published by the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) (May 2018), autism now affects one in 71 children in Arizona. With no known cure, early detection and intervention are essential to help children with autism and their families get the help they need. The Autism Society is the leading voice and resource for the entire autism community in education, advocacy, services and support
