FOUNDER
Michelle Wenell, M.A., B.C.B.A., CEO/ President of Advance Kids
I have dedicated the last 18 years of my career to children and families affected by Autism. For these experiences I will be eternally grateful. Parents of children with Autism have taught me the meaning of unconditional love, dilligence and hope. Their children have provided me with moments of joy, quandary, laughter and tears. It has been an absolute privilege to be present for the ‘first words’ and other accomplishments of these children and their dedicated parents. Every success for these children has been the result of countless hours of therapy, sleepless nights for the parents, and the committment of the community. These children can learn, they will contribute, but they need the intervention and specialized education services. Their parents need the peace of mind that comes with knowing that others care and believe in their children. The Treehouse is here for parents, for professionals and for the community at large to increase awareness, knowledge and provide support to those affected by autism spectrum disorders. Regardless of your ability to volunteer your time or your ability to donate materials or funds, we appreciate you visiting our site and making yourself more knowledgeable. If you tell just one person in this world that children with autism are teachable children, then you have literally contributed to this cause. If you tell just one person in this world that children with autism are loving human beings with potential to do great things, then you have literally contributed to this cause.
