We are now accepting applications for our grant program. The team meets once a month to review applications. If you are approved, a team member will contact you and let you know you have been approved. 

We do our best to assist as many families as possible, but we are limited by funding and are not able to meet the needs of all requests. Our grant program is funded by the generosity of our community through donations and fundraising. 

 

The grant helps those who need some financial assistance to cover the following:

  • Therapy 
  • Bio-medical Treatments 
  • Camp
  • Equipment 
  • Respite Care/Child Care
  • Outstanding medical bills related to the disability

We are happy to be able to provide grants for the amount of $250 to help individuals diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder.The current grant cycle will run from January – November or until allocated grant funds are depleted. We will not process any grants in April or December.

Rent/Mortgage, Utility payments, phone bills, trips/vacations, taxes, shipping, or structural changes to the home
