ASDF helps meet the needs of children and families affected by autism. There is an abundance of resources for autism trends, treatments and research, but the financial burdens families’ face are often overlooked. ASDF works with families and autism-specific organizations to help take some of the financial burden off their shoulders. ASDF lets families know they are not alone in their efforts and gives them hope for the future.

According to the CDC’s 2022 surveillance data, 1 in 36 8-year-old children in the communities studied were identified with autism. As more children are identified, the need for accessible resources, family support, and understanding continues.

At ASDF, we’re committed to helping children on the spectrum and their families get the support they deserve. 🦋

Every donation helps support children on the spectrum and the families who care for them.

This is what your support makes possible. 💚

Through ASDF’s iPads for Kids Program, families receive more than a device. They receive a tool that can support communication, learning, connection, and everyday life.

Hearing that an iPad arrived exactly when a family needed it most is a beautiful reminder of why we do this work. 🦋 And to everyone who donates, you help make moments like this possible.

Every donation helps support children on the spectrum and the families who care for them.

Autism doesn’t always look the same, and the numbers don’t either. 💚

According to the CDC’s latest surveillance data, autism was identified 3.4 times as often among boys as girls. Understanding these differences helps us continue important conversations around identification, support, and ensuring every child gets the resources they need. 🦋

Sometimes what looks like “low support needs” is actually a lot of support happening behind the scenes. 💚

Co-regulating. Preparing for sensory needs. Breaking down tasks. Adjusting plans. Creating routines. Advocating. Anticipating what comes next.

Thank you to Angelli for putting words to the work so many autism parents do every single day. 🦋

Sometimes support starts with asking a different question. 💚

Instead of “How do we stop this behavior?” try, “What can we change in the environment to better support this child?”

Visual schedules, clear expectations, predictable routines, and other accommodations can make everyday moments feel more manageable. Thank you to Britney R. Smith, M.S., BCBA for sharing practical tools that help families meet children where they are. 🦋

Some days, autism parenting looks like advocacy, appointments, and celebrating huge milestones. Other days… it looks a little more like this. 😂💚

Thank you to Michelle Frongillo for sharing the funny, relatable side of parenting and reminding us that sometimes you just have to laugh through the chaos!

According to the CDC’s latest data, approximately 1 in 31 8-year-old children were identified with autism.

Behind that number are millions of children and families who deserve access to resources, support, understanding, and opportunities to thrive. That’s why the work we do at ASDF matters. 🦋

The bond between siblings can be something truly special. 💚

For siblings of children with autism, that bond can also mean learning patience, celebrating different kinds of victories, standing up for one another, and loving each other exactly as they are. 🦋

Today we’re celebrating the siblings who show up with love, understanding, and a hand to hold.

Some reviews stay with you forever. 💚💛

Reading messages like this reminds us that what may seem like a simple gift can become a life-changing resource for a family.

For Felicia’s niece, an iPad isn’t just a device—it’s another way to communicate, learn, connect, and express herself. Knowing that it brought tears of joy to their family is exactly why ASDF exists.

To everyone who donates, volunteers, shares our mission, or supports our work in any way: this is your impact. Thank you for helping us create moments like these for autism families across the country.

Together, we can continue providing tools, resources, and opportunities that help autistic individuals thrive. 💚💛
