Our wonderful siblings

Today we want to give a heartfelt thank you to Rotary Club of Lake in the Hills for supporting our Mobile Sensory Tent.

Their generosity helps create a safe, calming, and inclusive space for individuals with autism, developmental disabilities, sensory sensitivities, and their families at community events throughout the year.

For many families, having access to sensory supports means they can stay, participate, and enjoy events together rather than having to leave early. That is what true inclusion looks like.

We are especially excited because this will be our second year bringing the Mobile Sensory Tent to Ribfest! We feel incredibly blessed to once again partner with an organization that truly believes in inclusion and works to make community events welcoming for everyone.

If more organizations embraced inclusion the way the Lake in the Hills Rotary Club does, our families would experience fewer barriers and more opportunities to fully participate in their communities.

Thank you for believing in our mission and helping us create a world where everyone belongs. We cannot wait to see everyone at Ribfest! ❤️

came across a service today that is offering free online autism evaluations/diagnostic assessments. For families who have been waiting for answers or struggling with long waitlists, this may be worth looking into.

As with any service, we encourage families to ask questions, research the provider, and confirm that any evaluation will be accepted by the schools, agencies, medical providers, or services they plan to use.

If you've been looking for a starting point in your autism journey, this could be an opportunity to explore.

Have you used an online autism evaluation before? We'd love to hear about your experience.
