My name is Brittany Ammons and I am a student at Wiregrass Georgia Technical College earning my diploma in Licensed Practical Nursing (LPN). I have a younger brother who has been diagnosed with Pervasive Developmental Delay (PDD), which is an Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD).

From July 2011 to January 2014, I volunteered with the 501 (c) (3), non-profit organization, Sensory Friendly Learning (SFL) Inc. SFL provided support for children with learning disorders, such as ASD, ADHD, ADD, and Dyslexia.

From July 2011 to December 2012, I volunteered as a tutor when SFL provided free, after-school tutoring.

From September 2012 to January 2014, I served as the Corporation Secretary for the non-profit.

In September 2012, SFL merged with the group Facing Autism Together Everday (FATE) in Douglas, Georgia. The purpose of the merger was for the two to work together to better provide for those with Autism and othed learning disorders in Ben Hill and Coffee County.

However, in January 2014, SFL dissolved. As a 501 (c) (3), SFL had so much business and paperwork that we were not able to tutor as much, which is what the organization was about. So, SFL dissolved so that we can return to focusing on the children.

At the moment, we are getting the resources together to begin tutoring children in Ben Hill County once again.

I have four blogs that you may find useful.

  1. Autism 4 Life - This is my general blog. There is a large variety of information on this blog.
  2. Apps 4 Education - On this blog, I review iOS apps that we used with children when we tutored after-school and other educational apps.
  3. Apps On Sale - On this blog, I post iOS apps that are free or being sold at a lower price for a limited time.
  4. Apple Apps 4 Free - On this blog, I post iOS apps that are always free.

I have mergered the other three blogs into Autism 4 Life and will be updating it only. However, I have kept the others up should you want to only look at them.
