S.C.C.A. was established in the Fall of 2010 as a non-profit organization with the purpose of bringing awareness to Autism and providing assistance to those individuals who work daily with children affected by Autism. During the first two years of fundraising, S.C.C.A. has distributed nearly $30,000 in funds to area Special Education Teachers. These funds were used to purchase materials that these individuals may not have had access to through their limited budgets (including computer software, sensory items, laptops and other electronics and even the materials to create an entire sensory room for students with autism to utilize when necessary during the school day).

As an unfortunate consequence of Operation Iraqi Freedom and America’s war on terror, many children of our active-duty military personnel are now members of single-parent families. In most cases, this also means their chances to attend college have greatly diminished. Children of military personnel killed on active duty are entitled to receive money toward a college education.
