The Uncommon Thread Dinner and more...

The Uncommon Thread is a non-for profit organization that helps families face an ever present disconnect in the fight to save their child from communication and behavioral disorders, which impede the learning process. Often frustrated and feeling helpless, parents can become immobilized in their effort to navigate the waters of early intervention.

The Uncommon Thread has created an environment where early intervention becomes a comprehensive, cohesive strategy between parents, specialists, therapists, and educators in order to team up and fight the debilitating affects that occur with children who have learning differences.

Autism affects us all with 1 and 94 being the diagnosed in our State. Please join them for cocktails, dinner, dancing, and an auction to support his worthy cause.
