About Parent Pathways
Our Mission
To empower, uplift, and walk beside families of children on the autism spectrum — from the earliest questions to long-term care — with compassion, clarity, and unwavering support.
At Parent Pathways, our mission is rooted in the belief that no parent should have to navigate the world of autism alone. We understand that the path from first concerns to diagnosis, therapy, services, and lifelong support is filled with complexity — but also with opportunity, growth, and resilience.
As a seasoned autism professional — RBT, HCBS case manager, advocate, and support provider — I’ve seen the gaps families fall through. I’ve seen the way systems like DDD, AHCCCS, ALTCS, and ABA can overwhelm even the most determined parent. I’ve also seen the difference it makes when families are truly supported — not just with information, but with heart.
That’s why we’re here:
✔️ To demystify the process of accessing autism-related services in Arizona
✔️ To help parents find their voice and advocate with strength and clarity
✔️ To build real relationships with families, rooted in trust and shared experience
✔️ To create a safe, judgment-free space where questions are welcomed and progress is celebrated
Our work is not about labels, systems, or checkboxes. It’s about families. It’s about helping parents understand not just what services exist — but how to access them, how to ask for them, and how to feel confident while doing it.
This mission is personal. It’s professional. It’s heart work.
Because behind every acronym is a child who deserves the very best.
And behind every child is a parent who deserves a guide who truly cares.
