Our latest Autism Blog features a special story from Nayomie Suarez and Josh Jobe, founders of the Different Not Less Foundation. Josh is also a cornerback for the Seattle Seahawks.

In their blog, Nayomie shares the heart behind Different Not Less and their commitment to creating greater awareness, acceptance, and opportunities for individuals with autism and developmental disabilities.

We’re grateful for their support of the Seattle Children’s Autism Center and Seattle Children's Alyssa Burnett Adult Life Center and for the work they are doing to remind us that being different is not something to overcome—it’s something to embrace and celebrate. 💙

Read their story on the Seattle Children’s Autism Blog:

Our mission is to support individuals with autism and developmental disabilities while empowering the families who advocate for them every day. We strive to create opportunities for inclusion, build stronger communities, and provide resources that help families feel supported rather than isolated.
