CLAUDIA WALTERS
Life Member #4 Claudia began her involvement with ACN as a parent, then began to volunteer in her local community. Over the years, she took on pro bono positions as our Strategic Manager, Grant Writer, Member of the Board, and advocate in the community. It is safe to say that without Claudia's involvement, we could not have reached to where we are today. |
TERRY LYNCH

Terry began by attending Board meetings as an observer and advisor from our great local community supporter, The Lions Club of Lugarno. His input was such that he was invited to join our Board, proving a valuable asset to the team ever since. The respect he is held in resulted in Terry becoming our President in 2017. Each and every day since Terry has used his time across the various community organisations he's involved with to promote the interests of families impacted by autism.
