About JCATF

Joi Camille Autism Transitional Foundation Inc. (JCATF) is a nonprofit organization born out of a personal journey of advocacy, faith, and transformation.

We raise charitable funds, provide scholarships and transition support, recognize the caregivers who walk alongside young adults, connect families to resources, and are building toward a future Autism Transitional Living Community.

Our Primary Focus Is Level 1 Autistic Adults After High School, Ages 18–24.

We recognize that every autistic individual and family has different needs. We will not turn people away simply because they fall outside this focus. When we cannot directly meet a need, we will do our best to connect individuals and families with resources and organizations that may be able to help.

Official Since March 2026
