I had the opportunity to work with Zac in the Teen Leadership Program this past summer and I must say I had the best time working with him. He was such a great role model and showed so much enthusiasm in everything he did. I am so fortunate to have gotten to know him.
Zac- I wish you the best of luck in all the goals you have set to reach, I know you will do great things!

Zac, the video was so good. You had great answers and looked at the camera like a pro. I bet the video helps other people with autism too. We hope to see you all soon!

Zachary,
You are one of the most amazing people that I know. You are kind and thoughtful. I love the way that you interact with me and my children (John 7 1/2 and Elizabeth 17 months). You help make our family complete. We love you so much! I have watched you mature into an incredibe person.
I’m so proud to call you my brother and dear friend. Thank you for being a big part of my life. You make me want to be a better person and strive to do my personal best.
Love you so much,
Traci

I had the chance to meet and work with Zac this summer at Dragonfly Forest. Zac is a great guy, who is fun to be around. I have no doubt that Zac will get his GED and find a job … it seem like when he sets his mind to doing something it gets done. I hope Zac returns to Dragonfly Forest next summer he is such a great role model for our kids with Autism.
