A special thank you to SAA Blackmore High School Girls Rec. Soccer and AYSO Chicago Lakefront Girls U19 for practicing with us on Saturday. Our two TOPSoccer player groups came together for a combined practice, where we played two intense matches against both girls' teams. After practice, we cheered on the Blackmore and Lakefront teams as they squared off. Thank you to SAA Blackmore, AYSO Lakefront, and all of our SAA TOPSoccer Buddies, Players, and fans for an afternoon filled with soccer. 🧡⚽💙

We "Felt the Boom" at Saturday's practice with Coop the Boomer. Coop joined us for a special kickball practice where we showed off our skills. Thank you, Coop and the Schaumburg Boomers, for an incredible day. 🧡⚽🖤

It's a bummer that practice is cancelled on 9/19.☂ So, to lift our spirits, we are introducing our new team name for the 2026-2027 season. Introducing the SAA TOPSoccer Soccer Dynamos!!! Thank you to one of our amazing players, Tanner, for coming up with this terrific name! See you next week!❤⚽

We had a fantastic turnout this past Saturday for our Labor Day Weekend, 1st practice of the season. Before practice, Minds With Motion joined us for an incredible, immersive Buddy training. We warmed up with some music and drumming with our first group, and engaged in a pretty serious soccer scrimmage with Group 2. Thanks to all of our new and returning players and Buddies, and Minds With Motion, for a fun first practice.❤⚽🥁🎼

🚨 THE MOMENT YOU’VE BEEN WAITING FOR IS HERE! 🚨

OUR 2027 MEDICAL INSURANCE GRANTS ARE OFFICIALLY OPEN! 💙

If you are an Illinois or Florida family looking for help making health insurance coverage possible so your autistic child can access Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) Therapy, this opportunity is for YOU.

💙 WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW:

Our Medical Insurance Grants cover MEDICAL INSURANCE PREMIUMS ONLY.

They do NOT cover:

❌ Deductibles
❌ Co-payments
❌ Co-insurance
❌ Other out-of-pocket medical expenses

If you are currently receiving HIPP (Health Insurance Premium Payment) reimbursements, do not apply for this grant.

Looking for resources to help with other medical expenses? Visit our resource page by state:

👉 www.autismheroproject.org

WHO CAN APPLY?

✔️ Families must have a current autism diagnosis
✔️ Must be a resident of Illinois or Florida
✔️ Applicants must demonstrate financial need based on household income, family size, and overall circumstances
✔️ Applicants may be uninsured, insured, or on Medicaid
✔️ Household income and family size will be considered
✔️ Priority will be given to low-income families and/or families with multiple dependents on the autism spectrum
✔️ Applicants must provide a Personal Statement explaining their financial need
✔️ The child must be seeking Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) Therapy
✔️ ABA therapy must be provided at a minimum of 12 hours per week
✔️ Grantees must maintain a minimum of 12 hours of ABA per calendar week
✔️ One application per child. Each sibling must have their own application.

This program exists because we believe access to care should never depend on whether a family can afford the insurance premium standing between their child and the care they need.

So if you've been waiting…

THIS IS YOUR MOMENT. 💙

Apply now and share this with a family who needs to see it.

💙 Illinois, we need your voice. 💙

Right now, we have a once-in-a-generation opportunity to help shape the Illinois Statewide Blue Envelope Program — and we cannot do it without community input.

The Autism Hero Project is gathering critical feedback to help design a program for the Illinois Secretary of State that supports safer, clearer, and more compassionate interactions between law enforcement and autistic individuals during traffic stops and public safety encounters.

The people most impacted by this program deserve to help build it.

Whether you are:
✔️ An autistic self-advocate
✔️ A parent or caregiver
✔️ A law enforcement officer or first responder
✔️ An educator, provider, or community member

Your perspective matters.

This short survey will help guide important decisions around:
🔹 Envelope design
🔹 Accessibility features
🔹 Distribution locations across Illinois

It only takes a few minutes, but your voice could help shape something that impacts families across our entire state.

👉 Complete the survey by scanning the QR code, clicking our link in bio or complete here:
https://forms.gle/RGVepbuQ2Nui2g237

Here’s how you can help right now:
1️⃣ Complete the survey
2️⃣ Share this post
3️⃣ Tag people who should weigh in

Please don’t scroll past this.

One share could reach the exact person whose voice we still need at the table.

Together, we can build a Blue Envelope Program that is not just well-intended, but truly meaningful, practical, and life-changing.
