Newly elected Chair Katie Santoro adds, “I am excited to work with the newly elected officers for the Junior Board and to serve as chair. I am happy to start this position within the neurodiverse community only 2 years after my autism diagnosis at 24 years old. I have wished to be more involved in the autism and overall disability community since discovering I am a neurodiverse individual. Serving as Chair for the Unicorn Children’s Foundation will fulfill my mission that all people with disabilities get the services they need. Not only will they receive the services they deserve but they will have a voice.”
