About Us
SunnyPath began with a simple belief: every child deserves the chance to enjoy skiing in a safe, supported, and welcoming environment. Inspired by an autistic child named Sunny, we set out to make skiing more accessible—empowering young people to feel confident, included, and embraced by their community.
SunnyPath is sustained by a compassionate network of volunteers and certified CSIA instructors who prioritize safety, patience, and individualized support. As a non-profit organization, we create meaningful ski experiences for children with autism and other neurodivergent conditions.
We work closely with families, autism organizations, and local ski hills to provide free, personalized coaching tailored to each child’s needs and sensory profile.
