   FEBRUARY NEWS!
   FEBRUARY 26, 2016 - Vol. 44        

 
We are honored that Parade has chosen Exceptional Minds for their February 28 cover story. More than 50 million Americans will learn about Exceptional Minds and how we are changing lives and the perception of those with autism. These millions of Americans will now know what we have always known...that our young adults are capable, talented, and make GREAT employees!
 
Please read the article and share it with your families and friends. We are grateful for your ongoing support as we continue to create exciting new possibilities for our exceptional artists.
 
With gratitude,

Yudi Bennett & Ernie Merlán
