Celebrating a Spectacular Year and a Milestone Ahead at the Autism Allies Holiday Party



On January 4, 2025, the Autism Allies family gathered at the Hilton Garden Inn in Worcester to celebrate a year of remarkable achievements—including the exciting launch of services in Connecticut—as we enter our 10th year of transforming lives. The evening was a heartfelt tribute to our dedicated staff, who have made this milestone possible.


Guests enjoyed an unforgettable night of entertainment, featuring beats by DJ Midnight, the dynamic rhythms of drummer extraordinaire Eli Mateo, and plenty of laughter thanks to comedian Michael Keating.


Here’s a glimpse of the celebration as we reflect on an amazing 2024 and look forward to a decade of progress in 2025!
