The AARC is not hosting all of these events. However, you may contact Krista James at kjames@sesa.org for more information. If it is not an AARC event, we will be happy to connect you with the group in charge. This is just the beginning! Many more events will be scheduled by Alaska agencies, especially as we get closer to April, which is Autism Awareness Month. As always, if you are interested in volunteering with any of the events or further information, please do not hesitate to contact us.
