Over the weekend, Balance Autism had the opportunity to attend ASK Resource Center’s 14th Annual Together We Can Conference.

We were grateful for the chance to connect with so many individuals and families, and to share the resources and services we’re proud to provide across Central and Eastern Iowa.

It was also a great opportunity to highlight our newer offerings, including our Balance Beginnings Preschool Program at both our Altoona and Clive clinics, as well as our Speech and Occupational Therapy services now available through our Clive and Clive - Metro West locations!

We truly appreciate everyone who stopped by to connect with us!

Balance Autism sponsored Science Center of Iowa's Sensory-Friendly Hours night, and it was such a special evening! We wanted to share a few photos that truly capture the joy, connection, and fun that filled the space.

It was amazing to see everyone exploring and laughing together!

We’re so grateful to everyone who came out and made the night so memorable.

Earlier this week, we were glad to be part of Urbandale High School’s Transition Fair. The event brought together local schools and a range of organizations to support students with IEPs and 504 plans as they prepare for life after graduation.

It was a pleasure to connect with families and share more about Balance Autism, along with the ways our team is here to support our community now and in the future!

At Balance Autism, World Autism Day is about more than awareness; it’s about action, acceptance, and celebrating the full humanity of the individuals we serve.

Autism is not something to be observed from a distance. It is a lived experience, a unique way of thinking, communicating, and engaging with the world.

We believe celebration means building environments where people feel understood, valued, and empowered to be exactly who they are. It means challenging barriers, expanding opportunities, and committing to inclusion not just today, but every day.

At Balance Autism, we don’t just raise awareness... we work toward a world where everyone belongs.

Furnishing each Balance Autism home is a meaningful investment in creating safe, comfortable, and welcoming spaces for the individuals we support. We are deeply grateful to our valued furniture partner, Homemakers Furniture, for their continued collaboration as we furnish every new home.

Their generosity and commitment to our mission allow us to stretch our resources while still selecting high-quality pieces that truly help each house feel like home. We appreciate Homemakers’ ongoing partnership and shared dedication to the families and individuals we serve. If you’re in the market for new furniture, we encourage you to give them a look!
