Join Tender Loving Canines Assistance Dogs Inc. for an evening with autism advocate Temple Grandin. Until the age of three, Temple Grandin was non-verbal and portrayed all the signs of an individual on the autism spectrum. Advised by her doctors to be institutionalized, her mother chose a different route. Through her patience, she raised a daughter that proved autism was not a “death sentence.” Grandin is now an author and professor of animal science at Colorado State University.
Proceeds from the event benefit TLCAD’s Leash-On-Life Scholarship Fund to provide service dogs to individuals with autism.
