Since I was 15, I’ve only worked with nonprofits and have had the joy to work with so many wonderful leaders across the country, especially in Vermont. We need to step up and support them if we want our communities to thrive.

This commission statement refers to people with Autism, ADHD, asthma, auto-immune disease, and chronic illness as a “dire threat to the American people and our way of life”.
