Zachary’s Aquarium Adventure

Zachary, with level 3 severe autism, epilepsy, and sensory processing disorder, had a wonderful time on his dream trip to visit the Atlanta Aquarium!

Family Thank You

“Zachary enjoyed his trip to Atlanta. He enjoyed the accommodations at the hotel and that it was walking distance to the aquarium. He was so calm and engaged throughout the aquarium and enjoyed it so much. We saw the sites and had his favorite foods while there too. We are very thankful for this opportunity and will forever cherish the memories of this experience. Thank you.” – Zachary’s mom, Jennifer
