Unpuzzled Parents Connect Makes Generous Donation to Ohio Valley ESC Bright Beginnings Preschool and Marietta City Schools

The Unpuzzled Parents Connect Support Group is proud to announce a donation aimed at impacting 4,000 students across the region in honor of Autism Acceptance Month this April. With a mission to foster inclusion, understanding, and positive peer engagement, the support group has provided books and classroom kits to Ohio Valley ESC Bright Beginnings Preschool classrooms, as well as Marietta City Schools- Washington Elementary and Phillips Elementary, that serve students in kindergarten through second grade.

The classroom kits are designed to help young students learn about autism and create meaningful conversations around acceptance. Each kit includes age-appropriate books and materials that equip educators with the tools to introduce the topic of autism in a way that is both engaging and impactful.

In addition to the books and classroom materials, the initiative provides opportunities for teachers to introduce the topic of autism in a supportive, interactive way, leading to more inclusive school environments.

The Unpuzzled Parents Connect Support Group thanks the schools and educators who have joined in this effort to make a lasting difference for students with autism. By working together, we can create an environment where every child feels accepted, included, and supported.
