My name is James Jones, and I am the proud owner and founder of Awetism Apparel. More importantly, I am the proud father of my son, Avery, who is 5 years old and was diagnosed with autism at the age of 2.
Awetism Apparel was created from our family’s personal journey. After seeing the lack of local support, resources, and understanding for families in the autism community, we wanted to create something that could help change the conversation.
The name Awetism comes from combining awesome and autism, because we believe being different is something to embrace, celebrate, and be proud of.
My wife and I have been fortunate to provide Avery with ABA therapy and speech services, and seeing his progress inspired us even more. That’s why a portion of every purchase will go toward supporting local autism organizations that help families access services and resources.
Awetism Apparel was created from love, inspired by Avery, supported by family, and built with a purpose: to spread awareness, support families, and help create a more understanding and accepting community.
