OUR
PURPOSE
Tiera Moultrie, a proud Detroit native and mother of two children with autism, recognized the pressing need for resources during the challenging times of the COVID-19 pandemic. The scarcity of support became not only a personal struggle for her but also a shared experience within the community. In response to the lack of inclusivity, Tiera took initiative and founded "Autism in the D," a dedicated space and support group that aims to address these critical needs.
Amidst the journey of creating a secure and supportive environment, Tiera realized the absence of a physical space specifically designed for individuals with autism and their families. Determined to fill this void, she is now pioneering the establishment of Detroit's first autism-inclusive play gym. This initiative is driven by the vision of providing a unique and welcoming space within the city, where families touched by autism can find a sense of belonging and support.
IN 2026, WE WILL BE OPENING THE FIRST AUTISM-INCLUSIVE PLAY GYM IN THE CITY OF DETROIT—NOT THE METROPOLITAN—THE CITY OF DETROIT!
WE ALSO NEED THE COMMUNITY'S HELP!
