Rhett Yates is a 22 year old from Tennessee whose mission is to bring Autism Awareness. Being on the spectrum himself, Rhett understands some of the challenges that people with autism face every day. The past couple of years, Rhett has been trying to bring awareness by selling Autism Awareness shirts throughout his community and donating the profits to an autism organization. He is wanting to reach a much broader audience, and sees a great opportunity in The Kelly Clarkson Show. Rhett believes that the show provides a great environment, and in combination with Kelly's great personality, can allow him to provide some perspective and information that can help millions of people better understand autism. 

Rhett Yates: I believe we can accomplish so much if we can make this happen. People on the spectrum need love, understanding, and support and I see this as an excellent way to do it. Kelly and her show spotlight several causes and I see the how being featured on the show has made a positive impact for the cause. I am asking that you please get behind me and help make this idea a reality. Thank you!
