ROYAL OAK – Set Sail for Autism allows people with Autism Spectrum Disorder to become crew members after the Chicago Yacht Club Race to Mackinac and Bell’s Beer Bayview Mackinac Race return these yachts to Port Huron. It takes place July 22 at the Fort Gratiot Lighthouse.

The program not only benefits people with ASD, but also the Judson Center, a non-profit human service agency that provides services to children and families affected by Autism throughout southeast Michigan.

In this segment of M2 TechCast, sailor Michael Sanchirico who is participating this weekend in Set Sail for Autism, and Hedi from the Judson Center explain the program.
