Collection: Rally For Rhett
It's that time of year again!!
We cannot be more pleased with all the pouring support everyone showed last year. Let's try and beat last year and support Rhett's Team and purchase a shirt and join them walking THE WALK FOR AUTISM.
WHY WE WALK
Autism affects the entire family, not just the person identified with the disability. The mental and emotional health of parents, marital relationships, meeting the needs of the other children in the family, relationships with extended family, friends and neighbors. All aspects of family life is affected.
Not only relationships, but routine functions, such as housekeeping, finances, and shopping are impacted by the challenges autism presents. Families tend to isolate
themselves due to exhaustion caused by caring for the child with autism. Autism thrives on isolation. The pandemic increased these struggles. The loss of socialization and communication can adversely affect the emotional health of each family member.
The Walk brings awareness to our community, provides networking opportunities for families, and provides funding to accomplish our goals.
