What inspired you to make this project?:
We are want to share our program's mission and our participants' accomplishments with Maker Faire attendees. Our participants, who have Autism, love to make films and videos. It is important for them to engage with each other and other people, to help them learn to socialize, communicate, collaborate, and ultimately learn to make and maintain friendship.
