Autism Specific Funding
Funding up to $200 for equipment, respite, and therapies for children (birth-22) with autism.

Financial Grants for Autism-Related Needs
If you have a child from birth to age 22 with an autism diagnosis, we may have a funding opportunity that can help cover costs not met by insurance, like needed equipment, respite, or therapies. Through the generosity of the Doug Flutie Jr. Foundation for Autism, families can request up to $200 per calendar year. This grant can also be used for emergency childcare, camp, or to attend a conference related to your child’s diagnosis. This is limited to one grant per family annually. You can complete a fillable or printable application and submit it via mail or email to laurel.sanborn@vtfn.org to apply. Stay current on this and other funding opportunities by signing up for our newsletter and connecting with us on social media.
