Houston Walk Day - "What to Expect"What to Expect was specifically created for the Houston Walk event. The more information you have going into a new event or activity, the better your overall experience.This event is more than just a walk event, it’s an opportunity to truly celebrate our loved-ones touched by autism. You can let your guard down, relax, and enjoy a family outing. If there is a meltdown or transitional issue, don’t worry about what everyone is thinking, because we all understand.Thank you for being an active warrior in the fight to improve the lives of those touched by autism spectrum disorder!
