Do we need to register our autistic child for the walk as well or just myself and their father?

Do we need to register each family member for the Family Walk? We have a 9 year old, 8 year old son (diagnosed with Autism), and a 2 year old. Just wanted to make sure we registered and signed us up correctly 😊

Team Brayden Olen looking forward to this event.
3.20.24. Autism Evansville would like to recognize two servant leaders with our organization who were both nominated for the 29th Annual Celebration of Leadership with Leadership Everyone.
* Lieutenant Chris Roe with the Vanderburgh County Sheriff's Office. Lt. Roe has been with the sheriff’s office for over 20 years, and currently leads the Community Engagement Section.
Lt. Roe oversees all SRO’s, including those at USI.
He is a compassionate leader, and is committed to giving back to his community. He serves on the board of directors for Autism Evansville and
911 Gives Hope and spends countless hours passionately focusing on individuals in the tri-state who need extra support.
*Kelsey Schapker is the executive director for Autism Evansville and has advocated for the inclusion and dignity of some of our most vulnerable citizens. Kelsey’s son was diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder in 2020, which is why she is dedicated and passionate to the families we serve. Kelsey’s work with her CAMSE Kits is what brought her to our organization. The CAMSE kits were the pioneer idea in our tri-state area.
Congratulations, Chris & Kelsey! Thank you for all you do!
