REACH presents An Evening with Temple Grandin

Thursday, July 6, 7:00pm

REACH is dedicated to provide resources and education for individuals on the Autism Spectrum and their families who reside in Sheridan County, WY to foster a community of inclusion and understanding. REACH is a new development to the Sheridan social service field with aspirations to become a 501c during 2023.

REACH was enacted to provide support for individuals with autism through assisting in uncovered medical expenses, independent living expenses, education and caregiver training and respite. REACH also strives to provide educational and inclusion opportunities for all residents of Sheridan County by hosting and promoting community events to raise awareness about autism and different “abilities” individuals may have.
To meet the above outline goals, REACH will host speakers and musical performances to raise funds necessary to support its programs and is pleased to welcome Temple Grandin as our first event.
