Full story

Roger Ethan has Autism Spectrum Disorder and severe expressive communication disorder (non-verbal). While unable to communicate clearly, there is NO LIMIT to the capacity in which he is able to learn, grow and achieve. 

He is brilliant, spunky,  an ingenious problem solver, determined, and so loving. When he walks into a room, everyone notices. His mischievous grin, precious dimples, heart warming laugh and eyes filled with such wonder. You can't know him, and not just love him. 

Being non-verbal Roger Ethan doesn't have the means to tell someone if something is wrong, what he is thinking, or feeling. It creates limits on where he can go, and what he can do. He does his best to lead them, but not everyone can figure out what he's trying to tell them. That leaves him feeling frustrated, and helplessness falls over the one caring for him at the time. Being unable to communicate causes social isolation. He deserves to be included. All children with autism do. 

We want the world to know that yes, Roger Ethan has autism, and he rocks it! We wish to spread awareness so that people who see him, know him, hear of him, (and others like him) don't think "tragedy" they think "ROCK STAR" because thats exactly what he and others like him are.
