Meet Chelsea Y.! Chelsea joined the Ascendigo family in 2017 as a part-time Residential support and worked with many of the clients. She became a full-time Life Enrichment RBT one year ago! . When we asked Chelsea what her favorite part about working at Ascendigo is, she said, ‘Earning my clients trust and respect. I believe this gives me the opportunity to further assist them in pushing through barriers, challenge themselves and elevate independence, as well as create lasting memories and experiences we both cherish.’ . A fun fact about Chelsea is that she has been working for her hometown (Steamboat Springs, CO) alternative newspaper for 18 years! She just so happens to write the funny horoscopes🤫. . Thank you, Chelsea, for being an essential part of Ascenidgo! . . . #autismawareness #elevatethespectrum #madeforme #ascendigo #autism #awareness #nonprofit #autismacceptance #autismspectrum #asd #autismspectrumdisorder #support #local #carbondale #colorado #roaringforkvalley #lovelocal

TODAY is the day! The Reason I Jump is available for streaming through the link in our bio! . We are thrilled to be partnering with Aspen Film to bring you this film and a special Q & A with our President & CEO, Peter Bell! . Based on the best-selling book by Naoki Higashida, The Reason I Jump is an immersive cinematic exploration of neurodiversity through the experiences of nonspeaking autistic people from around the world.

"There's a gap between what I'm thinking and what I'm saying. It's like a reflex reacting to what I've just seen in some cases. Or to some old memories. As if I'm drowning in a flood of words. The big exception is words or phrases I'm familiar with. Like playing a game of catch with a ball." - Naoki Higashida, author of best-selling book, The Reason I Jump .

Meet Andy, a hardworking member of our Residential
Meet Andy, a hardworking member of our Residential program that has a contagious smile that can brighten any room! . Andy started his journey with Ascendigo back in 2018, when he was working the Summer Adventures Camp. Since then, he has joined our Residential program to be a Skills Trainer! . When we asked Andy what his favorite part about working for Ascendigo is, he answered, “My favorite part about working with Ascendigo is being able to work direct care with the clients. Seeing the clients face light up with joy and seeing them smile so big when accomplishing a new task or endeavor is what makes it so special for me.” . Besides being left-handed, a fun fact about Andy is that he has once gone 10 years without cutting his hair, he has traveled to 16 countries in a 6-week span - riding camels in Tangier, seeing monkey being born in Gibraltar, and watching King Cobra snake charmers in Marrekech. How COOL is that?? . Thank you, Andy, for all you do to support the Residential Program, as well as Ascendigo as a whole! . . . #autismawareness #elevatethespectrum #madeforme #ascendigo #autism #awareness #nonprofit #autismacceptance #autismspectrum #asd #autismspectrumdisorder #support #local #carbondale #colorado #roaringforkvalley #lovelocal
