Celebrating the Courage of Families Living with Autism
FEAT's eighth FEAT Walk & Spring Carnival on April 13, 2024 celebrates FEAT's
31 years of nonprofit, volunteer driven service and resources for the local autism community. FEAT's mission is to continue to provide families with strong peer support, free education/resource meetings, meaningful family events, and access to caring volunteer coaches who share effective advocacy strategies.
When FEAT began as a volunteer-driven nonprofit in 1993, the prevalence for autism was one in 10,000. Today, the prevalence for autism is one in 44.
There is no cure for autism, making it a life-long challenge for families to have access to options for their loved ones to reach their full potential and experience a maximum quality of life.
"We will never forget the comfort of having FEAT members helping us 17 years ago when we first moved to Sacramento and our son was diagnosed with autism. Having FEAT's support during that bewildering time, and since, has made life more bearable." Howard &Tracey Dinh, FEAT Parents
