We have never had a true family vacation just the four of us

Every day we live with famjlj with high emotion needs and sensory processing issues.

The challenges are and require a constant devotion from each family member, with some days requiring more energy than others.

We are blessed with so many wonderful moments but has changed the way we are able to approach events that others are able to do on a regular basis.

Mental health affects us as a family mentally, physically, emotional and financially. We have never had true family vacation together in.

Autism on the Seas is a non-profit company that allows families like ours to experience a vacation that at one time we would have imagined to be impossible. They arrange specific special needs accommodations with the cruise lines and they provide professionally qualified staff to assist us with expedited port check-in, meal assistance, pool time supervision, beach excursions, respite (time for [insert family member name with special needs] to be well cared for while the rest of the family can do other things), and many other perks and assistance. Autism on the Seas also provides pre-cruise professional consultation and valuable resources, including connecting with other families for support.
