April is Autism Acceptance Month and we are excited to host the first of our two interviews with amazing persons that uplift and support the special needs community. Our first interview with the Washingtons will inspire and encourage special needs families.

Meet the Washington Family!

Married for nearly 8 years, James & Tasandra Washington are proud parents of two children—including their son, who has been diagnosed with autism, epilepsy, and ventriculomegaly.

As educators and faith-filled parents, the Washingtons bring a unique and powerful perspective to their journey. Their story is one of resilience, love, and unshakable faith, and we’re honored to share their inspiring words of hope and encouragement.
