Financial Aid

We offer financial aid to ensure all families in the Florida Panhandle can access essential services without financial barriers. Applications are welcome year-round, with or without a diagnosis.

We work closely with providers to manage either partial or full costs of necessary services. Your contributions support payments to providers, fund therapy sessions, cover educational expenses, and finance diagnostic assessments. These donations also enhance community strength and resource availability.

By contributing, you help us create a supportive environment for neurodiverse individuals, significantly impacting their lives and the broader community. Your support fosters a robust, inclusive network. Join us in making a difference.

We are so grateful and excited to receive the financial assistance for ABA therapy for my daughter. This assistance means she will be able to receive additional hours that we would not be able to afford at this time. My child loves her therapists and looks forward to going every week. I am certain this assistance will help her reach more communication goals! Many thanks!

We are so honored to receive this financial aid! This will help my family be able to give our daughter the help that she needs to make academic gains and will give her the confidence that she needs. This aid will also help our family be able to keep seeking support and help for her. We are so excited and can’t wait to see progress and growth.

We are looking forward to paying it back and helping support and volunteer in future Neurodiversity events.

Thank you so much for approving our financial aid request! These funds will be used immediately. Our daughter Riley, attends as many hours at FSU's Ecap campus, that they can provide. She is currently attending 12 hours per week, due to the therapist shortage in our area. Her recommended hours are between 20-30 per week. We are very grateful for as many therapy hours as possible! Riley is diagnosed as severely autistic, non-verbal. She requires daily intensive, specialized one-on-one care. We are very appreciative of this extra funding. Thank you so much for providing these much needed funds for our daughter 🙂 God Bless U!
