KNOWAutism Foundation

Happy Fam!

At KNOWAutism, we believe the story doesn’t end at diagnosis or childhood. It’s just beginning. Businesses like Rocambolesc remind us what’s possible when communities lead with heart.

Rocambolesc, a one-of-a-kind gelato, sandwich, and coffee shop nestled in Houston’s Uptown Park, co-owned by Isabel and Ignacio Torras through The Torras Foundation isn’t just serving up authentic Spanish-inspired flavors with high-quality imported ingredients. It’s built on a mission of compassion, inclusion, and meaningful employment for young adults with autism and other developmental differences.

It’s more than a meal, it’s a statement that autistic adults are capable, valuable, and deserving of real opportunities in the workforce. This is what inclusion looks like in action. A purpose. A place to belong. 💙
