Autism Youth Ambassadors (AYA)

Autism Youth Ambassadors

TACA is proud to collaborate with youths in the community wishing to volunteer their time in support of our Mission.

Autism Youth Ambassadors (AYA) work with TACA’s National Office to plan and implement strategies that will educate their peers about the rising incidence of autism and inspire others to join their efforts on behalf of TACA on their respective campuses (elementary, middle school, high school, college, etc.).  They also plan community fundraising efforts with the our guidance and volunteer their time at TACA events such as our annual Family Picnic each summer.
