SOS: Venezuela Autism & Family Support Initiative
Individualized three-month support kits and continuing follow-up for autistic children, teens, and adults and their families affected by crisis in Venezuela, including those navigating other neurodevelopmental disabilities and co-occurring mental-health needs.
Jacaranda Foundation provides individualized three-month support kits for autistic and neurodiverse children, youth, and adults in Venezuela, as well as their families.
Jacaranda Foundation is a California 501(c)(3) public charity created by three Latina mothers and professionals to provide specialized, continuing support after crisis.
When crisis disrupts a family's life, specialized needs do not disappear when the emergency leaves the headlines.
Rooted in California and connected to trusted partners in Venezuela, we build support across borders, one family at a time.
Rooted in resilience.
Blooming with hope.
Built in California. Beginning in Venezuela
The June 2026 earthquakes deepened an already difficult reality for autistic people, individuals with disabilities, and their families in Venezuela. Their needs are specialized, ongoing, and too often missed by general humanitarian relief.
From California, Jacaranda mobilizes professional expertise, donors, volunteers, products, and shipping support. In Venezuela, trusted partners help identify needs, coordinate delivery, and stay connected with families so support can continue beyond the immediate crisis.
Venezuela is our first initiative, not the limit of our mission.
Our broader purpose is to stand with autism, disability, and neurodivergent families facing crisis wherever connection, specialized support, and community are needed, including here at home in Orange County, California.
