The Autism Hope Alliance is the Autism first non-profit to emerge from the Natural Foods Industry and was Founded by Tom Bohager. As of September 2012, Kristin Selby Gonzalez was appointed as President/Chairman of the non-profit. Kristin has been an Autism Advocate for over 10 years and has done hundreds of lectures worldwide. She has seen her son go from a child who couldn’t speak or make eye contact, to a child who now is learning to read, write, rides a bike and participates in activities like gymnastics and karate. She understands firsthand what parent’s are dealing with. Autism is a complex issue, but helping a child isn’t.
