One thing I’ve always strongly believed in is that children with autism are a blessing.
Autism is defined as a group of developmental disabilities that cause behavioral, social and communicational problems. Although it is one of the largest disabilities that affect children, diagnosing autism is very difficult. Autism affects in different ways and degrees. I’ve had the blessed opportunity to work with autistic children. Each one is unique, demonstrating their own range of behaviors and symptoms. I love working with autistic children; they are incredible angels. I can be having a difficult day but a little hug or an “I love you” from them changes everything completely. Children with autism are brilliant we just need to understand their minds work differently than ours.
Autism is a lifelong developmental challenge many do not understand. Families with autistic children need lots of strength and support. For this reason I’m uniting with Surf 4 DEM to be a part of something big and life changing.
Surf 4 Dem is a foundation that offers autistic children therapeutic services through surfing. On Saturday, April 18th we’ll be celebrating a festival at Jobos Beach in Isabella Puerto Rico where music, games, surfing therapy, autism orientations and much more will be offered.
Join me along with beauty queen Denise Quiñones, model and TV host Jaime Mayol to spread the love for autistic children.
