9 before the summit we didn t really have a plan in our state. We didn t really have anything coordinated for children with autism. The summit gave us a purpose and brought us all together. Even though we thought we all knew each other, the summit allowed us to bring new people to the table. It turned out that there were really important people missing, having them there has helped a lot.
