Our annual Resource Fair is a vibrant gathering place for discovery, connection, and possibility. Attendees can meet a dynamic mix of exhibitors offering educational programs, therapeutic services, social and recreational opportunities, vocational training, financial planning, and so much more. Created with parents, caregivers, and professionals in mind, the fair offers a welcoming, inclusive space to ask questions, explore local resources, hear lectures about important topics, and build meaningful relationships with providers who truly understand the strengths and needs of neurodiverse individuals. With family-friendly activities, great food, and a warm, supportive atmosphere, the Resource Fair empowers families to find the tools, support, and community that make a lasting impact.

Music for Autism concert at noon!

Kerry Fenster is an American musician and satirist. He writes songs, sings a little, enjoys music production but finds it a bit laborious, and plays guitar, bass, drums, and a little bit o’ piano. His material – encompassing a wide range of influences including rock, rocksteady, politics, pop, philosophy and punk – is often steeped in dark comedy.

Kassandra Castro is a vocalist and songwriter from Long Beach, California, who discovered her passion for music at a young age. Growing up, she immersed herself in classical, jazz, musical theater, R&B, and pop, developing a versatile vocal style influenced by Mozart, Nina Simone, and Frank Ocean. Her diverse vocal background shapes her exploratory approach to R&B and pop music.

Welcome Kerry and Kassandra to Help Group. We are thrilled to have Kerry and his joyful, eclectic style back as Music for Autism’s 2026 Spotlight Artist!
