Grandparents and autism challenge
Did you know that one in 36 children today are being diagnosed with autism? When a grandchild is diagnosed with autism, it marks the beginning of an unexpected and unique journey − one that requires immense patience, understanding, and a willingness to learn and adapt. As grandparents, we find ourselves in a special role, filled with love and care, yet often facing challenges that are new and sometimes overwhelming. That’s why we are excited to announce the launch of the Autism Collier Grandparents Support Group − a place where we can navigate this journey together. Together, we can make a difference for our grandchildren and families.
Please join us for our inaugural meet-up on Monday, Oct. 14, at 4. We will be meeting at NAMI COLLIER- 5025 Castello Drive #101, Naples.

Election choices
For the Lee County Commission seat vote for Kizzie Fowler. She will bring a fresh new way of looking at the same legislation the good old boys on the commission voted for time and time again, year after year and the voters be darned. She will not pave over Lee County’s green spaces. Kizzie will fight for clean water, affordable housing, and lower taxes. Of course, she will see to it that women will get all their rights in all areas of their spectrum of life.
