What is the AACORN Farm?
Cindy Semark

In 2011, parents of individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) formed AACORN Farm, Inc, now known as AACORN. The group dreamed of appropriate housing, meaningful work and therapeutic activities for adults with ASD in Southwest Michigan. Driven by the need to serve adults no longer in the school system, a program was the first focus.  Cindy will give us a glimpse of what life is like at the AACORN farm.

AACORN, by the way, stands for Adult Agricultural Community Options for Residential Needs.
