KEY POINTS

Imagine being a parent, worried about your child’s future, especially if they have autism. It’s tough out there, and sometimes it feels like society isn’t always welcoming or understanding. But there are people like the D’Eri’s, a family who turned their worry into action.

When their son Andrew couldn’t find a job because of his autism, they didn’t give up.

Instead, they started Rising Tide Car Wash to create a safe and supportive workplace for him and others like him. Now, they have two locations where most of the employees are on the autism spectrum, showing us that everyone deserves a chance to shine.

This isn’t just about washing cars; it’s about building a community where everyone feels valued and respected.

Hosts Jessica Reyes, Patricia Wu, and Dr. Cortina Peters discuss how it’s about showing kindness, even when the world isn’t always kind.

And you know what? It’s working! Rising Tide isn’t just a successful business, it’s a place where people feel good about their work and about themselves. It’s a reminder that even the smallest act of kindness can make a huge difference in someone’s life.
