Austin sits down with SHONDA RUSHING, author of new book, "What If I Win?" at the Incompass Michigan re:con Conference to discuss life, leadership and believing in yourself. This conversation is well worth your time!

Austin met Abigail Adams at the SourceAmerica Grassroots Self Advocacy Conference in Washington DC this past summer and knew he needed to have her on the podcast! Listen as Abigail shares how she has overcome obstacles to becoming the successful young lady she is today! #DownSyndromeAwareness #DownRightPerfect

Today we held a brick placing ceremony for friends who passed away earlier this year. Saying goodbye is never easy, but we are grateful that our new memorial garden creates space for our team members to be be remembered and celebrated.

As both a HR professional and the parent of a special needs child, it couldn't bring me more joy to have such incredible support organizations right here in our community. Huge thank you to both Grand Traverse Industries and Autism Alliance of Michigan for helping TAHRA membership understand how we can best leverage these services, and, as Austin Darga put it, "Provide a paycheck, while also helping them follow their dreams".
