The
Puzzle Place Foundation mission is for
all individuals within the autism spectrum be provided
a lifetime network of opportunities to become fully
accepted, included, and active participant members
of our community, through family support, education,
advocacy, and public awareness.
The Puzzle Place Foundation was
founded in 2004 by parents for parents. We are here
to better assist families of children and adults
with autism in the South Florida area.
The Puzzle Place Foundation is
a nonprofit organization, which encourages the aid
of volunteers. A majority of the volunteers are
parents and/or siblings that understand what it
is like to live with autism on a daily basis. No
one knows all of the answers and most of us are
continually learning with the help of professionals
in the field.
The Puzzle Place Foundation is
funded through fundraising events such as private
donations, grants, ticket sales to special events,
social activities, walks, and so forth.
The Puzzle Place Foundation goals
are to help fund all types of therapys, enrichments,
provide parents and sibling with stress relief,
create interactive mainstream social events, public
awareness, support of advocates, develop autistic
descendant support.
We do not endorse or dismiss any specific treatment,
professional, and/or services. We are a source of
information and support to families of children
and adults with autism. We offer social opportunities
for individuals with autism to be included in the
community. We believe that all children with autism
are their own unique person and should be treated
as such.
The Puzzle Place Foundation is a not for profit
organization Tax ID# 30-0263832. |
