Keystone Village Houses will be open in 2027. And move in. Did construction start building houses now? Groundbreaking
You need to receive HUD funding!! I have been in HUD Section 811 housing program since 2001 for people with disabilities that use to be homeless. I only pay 30% of my income for rent.
His mother is very pretty
I agree Brilly is such a great advocate for individuals with special needs!
Thank you, Gina Kavali, for the incredible opportunity to join your podcast and dive into such a meaningful topic! Your energy made it a memorable experience, and I'm grateful to have shared the Snap Tap Zap experience with your wonderful audience. Looking forward to many more empowering conversations!
Thanks for the comment
The voice cracks 💀 sorry for the cracks!😮😢
This is just great! I would like go get in touch with you. I live in Germany and would like to start something similar. Would you be willing to give me some advice? Best regards
sure thing, if you would kindly send an email to Gina@gkasts.com. I will put you in touch with Patrick.
Thank you for the support for the channel.❤️❤️
Yes, of course. Please send me an email at Gina@gkasts.com
Time for better change, let's stand together tall for does that's in captivity. Thanks for sharing. 🎉
Ryan is our friend 😊
My son is in gnets and we was lied too about the program. My husband and I have tried too get him out for a year now. This is so heartbreaking. We need help.
Really short notice to post about this event the morning of it being held. I already have plans that can not be changed for today.
Your videos are very good and your editing skills are excellent, but your videos are not reaching many people. The main reason for this is that your videos are not SEO optimized. I am a TH-cam video SEO expert and would like to optimize your videos. Are you interested in this?
Connor really struck a nerve with me. I could relate to him a lot even though I've got ADHD and not Autism. Seeing his growth was amazing and very motivating for myself too.
Cool lyric
Hey hey, thanks man❤ really appreciate the support ❤️❤️❤️
Hi
My Grandsons are for the better to have read my friend John Trivelli's book. Thank you John, you are very appreciated.
John Trivelli's I Wanna Bee books were so amazing. My disables son loved them!
Yes, we toke my daughter to NYC for HS Graduation, she really wanted to go as a Graduation present. It was busy, we stayed on Time Square, and she LOVED it. I was amazed that she coped with all the sensory. I on the other hand was, this is too many people and too much action, plus getting turned around. Go figure! I will checkout the book.

I get those parents I still have PTSD
Lovely interview. So happy to hear how family oriented they are ❤

WE <3 YOU MRS. ANNIE!!!!
As a mother of 2 ASD kids, I HATE your show and how it cookie cuts and stereotypes people on the spectrum, not to mention makes a mockery of them. You might as well start a freak show at a circus with the intro of "step right up, see the amazing wonders of people with autism finding love!", because that's essentially what your show is doing...
Yes i’m sorry you hate the show. Gina herself has a child with ASD making her not only knowledgeable, but helps her work extra hard to help create awareness and a safe place for kids and people of all ages with ASD to come together and connect, and most importantly to let them know, they are not alone …. she is dedicated to ASD and helping others build confidence and possibly careers. The fact is not one person is a stereotype or a cookie cutter on the show they are all different which in return helps other children like my son and his friends learn so much and gain confidence. I hope everyone realizes nobody gets paid to be on the show. These families are putting their vulnerability out there to help other people on the spectrum. The show is to create awareness of ASD and to promote other people with ASD so when people connect, they are like-minded. Let’s please not hate on someone’s hard work. Thank you and have a good day
As a former teacher of students on the spectrum, I love how your show offers families so many opportunities to connect with other people and organizations to positively influence them and the life of their child. I look forward to watching your videos each day and am especially excited to see your sit-down chat. Can't wait!!!❤
I'm a mom of 2 ASD kids as well. I think this commenter is saying she hates Love on the Spectrum, not Gina's show, which is about connecting to resources. I mean...we all see things differently and Crystal Brown thinks it's making a mockery. Her right to feel that way but I think the kids on Love on the Spectrum has allowed viewers to see them much more like humans than if they hadn't really met anyone on the spectrum before. So as a mom of 2 ASD kids, I simply see it differently. Gina's show is awesome and has helped me to learn about all of the things that are out there to help our kiddos that I never would have known about. Just wanted to give my 2 cents
I'm not sure how many of these episodes you have watched but it seems like not a lot. I know many of the people featured and we all have very different kids on the Autism spectrum. We are all special needs parents here and I get your life is hard. Gina is informing us of resources that might help. As another mom of 2 children with special needs, I think we need to support each other rather than spend our energy trying to hurt them.
Hi, please do not hate on a persons show, but, Gina puts hard work into these shows and I hope you watch more episodes of the fantastic spin she puts. Thanks -LG
I went to Elam Alexander Academy in Macon, GA. Class of 2015
Fantastic information! Thank you for the critical work you do and for highlighting the work of the Profound Autism Alliance.
This is great, we need more special housing for autistic ppl and families!
I did not know about this 🤔 thanks for the video
I LOVE you're Tshirt!!!!

I liked the video
I have an Asperger's Syndrome diagnosis. I was one of 22 people chosen to go through Unlock Georgia legislative advocacy training in 2024.
Great interview.
Love what you are doing and I want to share, but sometimes I’m nervous of offending people. Is there an approach that you would recommend?
Great question. Most parents with special needs kids are open and would appreciate any resources that you can direct them too. With more and more kids diagnosed ASD, this show aims to help connect them with the resources and tools they might not otherwise know about. I think everyone knows that the heart is always in the right place! G~
Great interview and resource for the autism community in need of these services. Thank you!!
Thank you for ALL the wonderful impact your making in our world
Awesome work, Mr. Jackson and the staff. All areas need something in place like this. So many of our youth need help.
Awesome. Very informative. Always good to know their is help for the youth.
Our kiddo is signed up for Shenanigans!
Sweet
Great show! Thank you for being an advocate 😊
Wonderful to learn about this important series!
It's always so great to see Gina connecting all the dots so people get the help they need! Thanks to all of you who do so much good for so many!😊
Great episode! My son was in the class with Lyric and we agree - phenomenal fun important program!
Autism Improvised is an excellent program. My 21 y.o. autistic son participated in the Zoom class with Instructor Alex last summer and it was a great experience for him.
my son is 16 and did the in person class. I'd love to hear how the Zoom aspect worked for your son. Thanks so much.
I love Jillian!!!
I watched the first episode last night and was so excited to see you- I was yelling at the TV😂
