LYNDA TACHE
Lynda Tache’s world was forever changed when her only child, Grant, was born in 2001. He was a beautiful baby, but had many different developmental and behavioral challenges starting as young as 6 months old. After years of struggling and not being able to find answers, Grant was finally diagnosed 5 ½ years later with autism and other related conditions, taking Lynda’s life on a very special path that, unbeknownst to her, would impact many lives, including her own. She was now a single mom at a loss of where to turn next for answers and support after the diagnosis to help her and her son find hope. Like most parents in this same situation, she woke up every morning asking herself, “What now and what does the future hold?” Little did she know her quest for answers would change hers, Grant’s, and numerous families in similar situations’ lives for the better.
GRANT TACHE
Chief Inspiration Officer
“As a kid with Autism, ADHD, and Learning Disabilities, I had lots of behavioral, sensory, and self-regulation challenges that I could not communicate to my mom and others. School and life was very hard for me. Without my family’s love and support, and ongoing therapies, I would not be the person I am today. Helping my mom with the non-profits we built made me want to help others like me. I am excited to help more kids and adults that have autism and other special needs. ~ Grant Tache, 24 years old
