The FC Club

My name is Dov. I am a Jewish man with autism. I can speak but it is easier for me to type. I can do so much that I couldn’t do before JoyDew. Come join us at JoyDew to make new friends!

Dov Marcus

12.2.24

I am a man of many words. But I don’t know how to speak them, so I type using fc.

I think it is well known that typing takes some help, but with the right help I can tell you everything that is on my mind.

It is my best way to communicate. You may think it is not the right way but for me it is.

I am very happy that I am able to express my thoughts and needs.

If I can say everything that’s on my mind I can be part of the conversation.

I really need the chance to talk to my friends. l like being no different than others even though I type. I still want to have friends and conversations.

About JoyDew

JoyDew transforms the brutal reality of people with autism from being treated as a commodity, living in isolation and without hope, into flourishing human beings with lifelong friends, who can express themselves and apply their unique talents and skills to succeed in the workplace. Our day program identifies their unique strengths and interests, develops them with job training and academic enrichment, provides communication and other supports, and creates high-level employment for people with autism, without exception, where they can learn and grow in a community of their own, and unleash their hopes and dreams.
