Thousands attend OC Autism Foundation’s breakfast with Santa in Garden Grove

It was Christmas time and, to celebrate, a small support group of parents with children with autism gathered for milk and store-bought cookies. There were maybe 30 people in all. Santa was there.
That was 10 years ago.
Fast-forward a decade to Saturday, Dec. 14, at the Atlantis Play Center in Garden Grove, where thousands of people attended a “Breakfast with Santa” sponsored by the OC Autism Foundation.
