OUR STORY
Aura Elizabeth Vizcaya, a brave and dedicated mother, began her journey by offering support to other mothers at the therapy centers she attended with her son Mauro, who was diagnosed with autism at 20 months. As someone also diagnosed with autism and combined ADHD, Aura deeply understood the challenges many families face. Realizing the lack of support, inclusion, and adequate resources for early intervention within the Hispanic community in Gwinnett County, GA, she decided to take action. This led to the creation of a support network for parents, which over time evolved into the nonprofit organization we now know as Autismo Día a Día.
If you are a mother in a similar situation, I want you to know that you are not alone. We are here to support each other, and I completely understand what you are going through. Autism has come into our lives to teach us to unlearn and relearn, and to live one day at a time—Day by Day.
