Support SparkBird

OUR NONPROFIT MODEL COMBINES PUBLIC FUNDING SOURCES WITH CHARITABLE GIVING, GRANTS, AND COMMUNITY SUPPORT TO INVEST DIRECTLY IN CAREGIVERS. BY PROVIDING EXCEPTIONAL TRAINING, COMPETITIVE COMPENSATION, CONTINUING EDUCATION, AND MEANINGFUL CAREER OPPORTUNITIES, WE AIM TO CREATE A WORKFORCE THAT REMAINS COMMITTED TO SERVING INDIVIDUALS WITH AUTISM OVER THE LONG TERM.

TOGETHER, THESE ORGANIZATIONS ARE INTENDED TO CREATE A CONTINUUM OF CARE THAT SUPPORTS INDIVIDUALS THROUGHOUT THEIR LIVES WHILE GIVING FAMILIES GREATER CONFIDENCE ABOUT THE FUTURE. OUR VISION IS SIMPLE: STRENGTHEN FAMILIES TODAY WHILE BUILDING A BETTER FUTURE FOR TOMORROW.
