April is Autism Acceptance Month – a time to listen, learn, and strengthen our commitment to building a more inclusive world. Every day, we see what’s possible when individuals with autism are understood, supported, and given the opportunity to thrive. That’s what One World. For Everyone. means to us.
More than a century ago, Margaret Bancroft opened her home to one child because she believed every child deserved the chance to learn, grow, and thrive. At a time when few shared that belief, she chose patience, hope, and love, building what would become Bancroft. This Women’s History Month, we begin by honoring the woman who started it all. In the weeks ahead, we’ll share stories of women across Bancroft who carry her legacy forward. 🔗 Read Margaret’s story: https://bit.ly/3ZYf4CI hashtag#WomensHistoryMonth hashtag#WHM hashtag#WHM2026
