KINDNESS IN SPECTRUM FOUNDATION

Silvia and her husband made the life-changing decision to move to Miami, FL, to give their son, Marc, the opportunities he deserved. As a dedicated Autism advocate, Silvia quickly became a Business Consultant and joined the board of a Parent Organization, where she discovered that only 0.05% of parents of young adults sought Autism coaching support. Seeing the loss of hope in many families, Silvia founded the MIAMI IS KIND Foundation, creating jobs for young adults with Autism. In 2024, she rebranded it as the KINDNESS IN SPECTRUM Foundation to expand her support globally.

Through programs like MIAMI IS KIND and COACHING FAMILIES AT RISK, Silvia provides employment opportunities and guidance for families in need. Funded by her work as an Autism Coach, Business Consultant, and Speaker, Silvia’s mission is to foster inclusivity and understanding for individuals on the spectrum. Her journey from Barcelona to Miami reflects courage, love, and unwavering advocacy for the Autism community.

Silvia fundraises for KINDNESS IN SPECTRUM Foundation programs through her paid services as an AUTISM COACH FOR FAMILIES, as an AUTISM BUSINESS CONSULTANT for companies willing to embrace a workforce with Autism, and as an Autism SPEAKER to transform your staff mindset and any collective in our communities towards a kinder, braver, and more effective approach towards persons in the spectrum.
Silvia’s story is one of courage, sacrifice, and relentless advocacy. From the bustling streets of Barcelona to the welcoming arms of Miami, her journey reflects the power of love and the profound impact one family can have on a community. Marc’s light continues to guide Silvia, inspiring her mission to bring hope and opportunities to countless families.

Our Mission

AUTISM COACHING FOR FAMILIES AT RISK PROGRAM MISSION

While living in Spain, Silvia’s family, especially Marc, faced significant challenges and often felt left behind due to a lack of aids and knowledge of his Autism. Although they were fortunate to find opportunities by relocating, Silvia recognizes that not every family has access to the same advantages. To address this, she created the Autism Coaching for Families at Risk Program, designed to support families with children who have high support needs, often referred to as severe Autism, and lack the financial resources to afford coaching.

In her mission to make Autism support more accessible, Silvia donates 20% of the proceeds from her services—whether as an Autism Coach, Speaker, or Consultant—to the KINDNESS IN SPECTRUM Foundation. These funds are directed specifically toward helping at-risk families, providing them with much-needed guidance and support. Silvia’s efforts are driven by her belief that every family deserves hope and access to resources, regardless of their financial situation. Through this initiative, she is empowering families to find the support they need to thrive.
