Today's highlight for #SpotlightOnCLT Autism Awareness is all about ZABS Place, a "thrift boutique where potential is found". ZABS Place employs young adults with special needs or, as ZABS likes to say, special talents. We spoke with Bentzion Groner, Executive Director about the store, and why she thought to find talent where no one else thought to look.
Today's highlight for #SpotlightOnCLT Autism Awareness is all about the The John Crosland School. We spoke with Head of School, Hallie Rojeski, about how this school makes such a big impact here in Charlotte.
