April is Autism Acceptance Month—a time not just for awareness, but for action. It’s about moving beyond simply knowing of autism, and choosing to support, include, and uplift those with autism in everyday life. 💙
Meet Jadon—one of the many incredible individuals we have the joy of working with at ICAN. Jadon is a bright light, full of joy and compassion. He’s driven by a deep desire to give back, and we’re so inspired by his pursuit of independence and his heart for his community.
In his own words, if you’re not sure how to engage with someone with autism, “Just give people a chance.” It’s really that simple—and it makes a world of difference.
🎥 Watch his story and take the first step toward deeper understanding and true inclusion.

🌎 Happy Earth Day from all of us at ICAN! 🌱
We love sustainability—from recycling to the care we put into our own gardens (and local ones too!) to beach + park cleanups, our creative Swap-Not-Shops that give items a second life instead of a landfill home, and more! Taking care of our planet is part of how we care for our community and we’re always looking for more ways to do both. ♻️💚
Shoutout to @gradesofgreen & @kellogggarden for partnering with us in sustainability!
Here’s to growing, giving back, and going green—today and every day!
A little pizza, a little painting, and a whole lot of fun! 🍕🎨
We recently hosted an ICAN Staff Social and it was the perfect mix of good food, great vibes, and even better people. Huge thanks to @piizaasb for keeping us well-fed while we tapped into our creative sides!
We’re so grateful for our amazing staff and the heart they bring to our clients and community every day. 💙

This Easter Sunday also happens to be Volunteer Recognition Day, and we’re celebrating with a little fun!
We’ve hidden 1 egg in each of the 12 photos in this collage featuring our INCREDIBLE ICAN volunteers in action. From setting up events to showing up at camp and everything in between — your time, heart, and joy make ICAN shine. We are endlessly grateful for each of you! 💛
👉 Your challenge:
Find all 12 eggs, comment “done” + your favorite Easter candy, and we’ll randomly choose three people to each win an exclusive ICAN print made by one of our talented clients! 🎨
Happy Easter from all of us at ICAN — we hope your day is filled with celebration, joy, and all the best eggs (both hidden and chocolate)! 🐰🥚✨
