Born and raised in Harrison, Arkansas, Logan’s life took a significant turn when he was diagnosed with autism at the age of 10. However, what might have seemed like an insurmountable obstacle to some became a pathway to remarkable personal growth and the embodiment of a timeless mantra that with love and acceptance, you can change the world.
Upon receiving the diagnosis, Logan’s mother was nervous, but reassured by a doctor who reminded her this was the beginning of a new journey with her son. Little did they know, those words would echo through Logan’s life, shaping his perspective and fueling an overwhelming sense of determination in all that he pursued.
From the moment of his diagnosis, Logan embraced a deep belief in the power of acceptance. Despite his challenges, including feeling overlooked and at times overstimulated by life, Logan approached each day with a positive attitude.
Logan believes that acceptance is the true “cure,” to any differences, and that acceptance is the key to unlocking a world of understanding, love and support. He describes his autism not as a limitation but as a beautiful gift. Today, he is pursuing multiple projects including authoring a children’s book about the importance of such values.
“Autism Speaks” is an organization dedicated to promoting solutions for the needs of individuals with autism and their families through advocacy and support. It focuses on increasing understanding and acceptance of people with autism, advancing research into causes and better interventions for autism spectrum disorder, and working to enhance the quality of life for those affected. The organization was founded in 2005 and engages in various activities, including funding scientific research, providing resources for families, and organizing community outreach programs such as the annual Autism Speaks Walk.
