Geoffrey Evans

I have been blessed with an amazing opportunity at church!! I have the distinct pleasure of working with Geoffrey Evans on the 2nd & 4th Sundays of every month during the 9am church service so his parents are able to attend church together without disruption. I've been working with him since July and loving every minute I have with him. Geoffrey is 3 years old and was diagnosed with autism at the age of 2. He's very high functioning and loving and SO MUCH FUN!! It is wonderful to see him making progress. He is currently non-verbal, but is learning to "speak" through some sign language and picture association. I finally took some pictures of him so I could share him with all of you...

Hey Jen! That's awesome! My roommate is a special ed teacher/consultant and did her masters thesis in autism. If you ever want any ideas or have questions about working with Geoffrey, let me know and I'll ask her. :)
