My name is Janey Cline and I am a board member of All Things Autism Foundation; and I am serving on the Volunteer Coordination Committee. I have a Bachelor's Degree in Criminal Justice, and I have worked in the Mental Health field since 2015. I have worked in group home settings, with individuals in their home, and even as a Special Education Teacher in a Self-Contained classroom for children grades K-6th. Currently, I am working as a Care Coordinator with Arkansas Total Care.

I live in Mineral Springs, and I have 3 amazing children and a wonderful boyfriend who is a Wrestler. My daughter, Precious is 19 and is in her 2nd year of College; Jayden is 10 and he is diagnosed with ADHD & Autism; and Kaiden who is 8 and also diagnosed with ADHD & Autism. This is the reason I wanted to join the board, because not only have I worked with children and adults all over the spectrum, but I am also raising 2 children who are on the Spectrum.

My family is really big into Independent Wrestling, and we go all over Arkansas and Texas to watch the shows and to support my boyfriend of course. My daughter is also an Interviewer with a wrestling company in Marshall, Texas. So almost every Saturday you can catch us at a wrestling event, if not then we're at home relaxing, watching TV, or having game nights with family and friends. We also like going on adventures and finding new and exciting things to see and do.

While serving on the Board, I hope to bring new ideas and help raise awareness and be able to involve community members and leaders in a variety of events and programs. I am so thankful to be a part of this wonderful Foundation, and I can't wait to see what our future holds!

Ebony Swiney is a Board Member of the All Things Autism Foundation who brings a diverse professional background spanning education, finance, manufacturing, government, and nonprofit work. Her broad range of experience allows her to offer a well-rounded perspective that supports the foundation’s mission of advocacy, education, and community engagement.

Ebony’s passion for autism awareness deepened after a powerful experience while visiting family in North Carolina. During that time, she helped reunite a non-verbal autistic child who had wandered away from his family. Because Ebony had previously attended an All Things Autism Foundation training at the public library, she was able to recognize the signs of non-verbal autism, keep the child calm, and ensure his safety until his parents were found. This moment affirmed the importance of education, preparedness, and community awareness when supporting individuals on the spectrum.

She joined the board out of a deep respect for the foundation’s work and a personal connection to one of its co-founders and her son. Ebony is committed to helping expand autism awareness, strengthen support for families and caregivers, and increase community education and involvement.

Outside of her professional and advocacy work, Ebony enjoys listening to music and reading. She brings enthusiasm, compassion, and a strong desire to serve to her role on the board, helping advance the foundation’s impact within the community.
