Does Anyone Know Of Funding Sources For Middle-class Families?
A MyAutismTeam Member asked a question 💭

Looking for assistance to pay for a 1:1 four our little man's summer program. We don't qualify for assistance but don't make enough to cover the costs.

Try United Healthcare

We are in the same boat and I researched and researched to try and find someone that would help. They offer up to $10,000 in grant money. We only needed $5,000 for ABA therapy.
Although, I will tell you that you need to be sure that whatever services your child could receive is included in your grant proposal. Our Autism Center changed their wording and it turned out to be a huge mess with invoicing and so forth. Good luck!

Okay, I know how everyone is feeling and as the mother of a nonverbal 11 year old- I want you all to take a deep breath and know-there is a lot more help out there. We were stuck in this whole cant help you make toooooo much money and as the middle class in me and my wallet I say WHAT. I will help direct anyone to the help they need. And where to start. May take a couple of days but I am soooooo ready to help. May all of you have a blessed day.

Check out Meryl Lynch"s site for free assistance tools. You may just need to rearrange a few things financially to qualify: http://www.wealthmanagement.ml.com/wm/pages/Spe...

You may want to ask for volunteers at a local college.
Also, college students may be able to work at a reduced rate to gain course credit.

Remember even special education can qualify for the 7.5% of gross income medical tax deduction..;)
