Gerald the Giraffe

Friendly Face

Gerald the Giraffe is the friendly face of Autism Service Group. He stands for what guides our work every day: seeing the world from different perspectives, leading with gentleness, and creating spaces where people feel safe, understood, and welcomed.

Like a giraffe with a wide view of its surroundings, Gerald reminds us to look beyond the obvious, notice individual needs, and make room for every way of communicating and being. He’s here to greet families, reflect our respect for neurodiversity, and embody the calm, supportive care we strive to provide
