  In 2012 LAAF's 2nd Annual Sensory Friendly Santa Event hosted over 140 families of children on the Autism Spectrum from the Tampa Bay area for our Sensory Friendly Santa event.  Go to our Sensory Friendly Santa page for more information.

"We can't thank you enough for our absolutely most memorable event ever! My family was completely filled with warmth and love from each volunteer.  I personally felt that my son was handled with love and care.  I am so grateful to the time and efforts you all spend to hold this event.  We can't wait to visit again this year.  Happy Holidays!" ~ The Montefusco Family
