About Our Honorees:

The OJC Youth Group connection to Jawonio is long and deep,spanning three generations and more than three decades. Among their teen leadership are grandchildren of two long-standing board members of Jawonio. The OJC Youth have truly “adopted” Jawonio and over the last ten years have donated their time,energy and fundraising dollars. The teens have participated in summer and winter carnivals, bowl-a-thons, golf-a-thons, swim-a-thons, film benefits, bingo nights and made special visits to our group homes.

Mindworks Charitable Lead Trust is dedicated to funding meaningful scientific research into Autism Spectrum Disorders, as well as evidence-based educational programs for children and adults with Autism and other developmental disabilities. Mindworks currently supports a unique clinical and diagnostic service at Jawonio. With their generous gift, a developmental pediatrician provides monthly evaluations and parent/staff consultations for our children receiving early intervention services and those who attend our special education preschool.
