My name is James Holder. I was diagnosed with autism when I was a child. I'm now an adult, and I'm thriving and very happy! Having autism is a challenge, but foundations like the Doug Flutie Jr. Foundation for Autism is available to individuals with autism and their families. They provide the tools needed to ensure every person and family affected by autism feels Safe, Supported, Educated, Active, Employed, Social, and Informed.
I will be running the 2025 Walt Disney Marathon to raise money for the Doug Flutie Jr. Foundation for Autism!
