Our Story
Two parents. One autistic son. Zero options in rural Arizona.
Founded in 2007 by Keith and Angela Levin after they couldn't find autism support for their own son in rural Arizona. What started as a small school has grown into a 65-person organization serving individuals from kindergarten through permanent residential care.
It's the only program of its kind in all of Yavapai County.
