Check out our favorite action shots from Speed Interview Day!

During every cohort, our Career Readiness & Employment interns spend a day mastering interview skills through a series of rapid-round interviews. This year, we had the privilege of partnering with Atlantic Union Bank and Live! Casino — their staff came fully prepared to meet our interns with high levels of expertise and enthusiasm.

We’re so grateful to our community partners for their dedication to supporting our pursuit of a more neuroinclusive Virginia!

As a business executive, employee or community member, how do you build a workplace culture that does more than simply "accommodate" disability? At our Autism & Neuroinclusivity in the Workplace training, you'll learn the importance of Universal Design in building support strategies and a naturally inclusive environment for individuals of all needs.

Join us at the All-Abilities Innovation Center on June 24th, 2026! Register here today: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/autism-neuroinclusivity-in-the-workplace-tickets-1990645976703?aff=oddtdtcreator

This past week, we attended K-Cettes's annual banquet where they presented Commonwealth Autism with $9,000 — a product of their dedication to partnering with CA. In order to support CA's mission in building a more neuroinclusive Virginia, the K-Cettes organization has spent the past several months fundraising through dinners, tea parties, yard sales & more.

We are incredibly thankful to Angela Payne and Mary Carroll Flynn, President, and the entire K-Cettes community for hard work and generosity!

This weekend was all fun and games for us!

Our Career Readiness & Employment graduate, Henry, turned the Commonwealth Autism cafe into a buzzing gaming lounge for his Neuroinclusive Gaming Social. Whether it was solo adventures in Mario Bros or teaming up to take out final bosses in Final Fantasy, our crew had a blast sharing snacks, exciting games & fun conversation.

Brewing Opportunities is coming soon! Commonwealth Autism is partnering with Afterglow Coffee to open our very own coffee cart. We spent an afternoon with 6 CRE graduates at Afterglow, learning about coffee roasting and tasting blends. Together, we tasted four delicious roasts and brainstormed fun flavor combinations. Stay tuned for our cart launching this summer!

Our latest Career Readiness & Employment cohort is in full swing! Cohort 8 began in the classroom where our interns will learn critical professional skills for the next four weeks. Our interns met our Good Foods Grocery managers & CRE job coaches for the first time before jumping into learning all about workplace safety. Coming up next: our interns will practice filling out job applications, interviewing & adjusting to new work environments!

This week, associates from Cherry Bekaert spent the day serving alongside us for their Volunteer Day of Service. Our All Abilities Innovation Center received some much-needed TLC through landscaping, organizing supplies, and painting our conference room. Their hard work gave our building a fresh lift, and we’re incredibly grateful they took time out of their day to support our mission in such a meaningful way.

A big shoutout to our amazing community partner, Cherry Bekaert!
