Congratulations to The Wonder Works OT PLLC for becoming Autism Friendly Business Certified!

I am a neurodivergent clinician and mom to a neurodivergent child myself and have dedicated all continuing education and advanced certifications on neuro-affirming care/ evidence-based practices.

My treatment is child-led and heavily involves families (including collaborative goal setting and resources for home use) as I emphasize carryover into the child's natural environment and peer interactions.

Congratulations to Kristie Hanke for becoming Autism Friendly Business Certified!

As a speech therapist and parent coach, I am frequently in a position to educate and model inclusivity. From teachers at daycare to staff at the library, my intention is to support the individual and their family to be able to participate in activities within their area of interest.

I also believe it is important to be a part of a community, so volunteering and sharing resources with families is a way for me to help create connections within the community.

Congratulations to Coleman Preparatory Academy for becoming Autism Friendly Business Certified!

Coleman Prep is committed to creating an inclusive community where every student has what they need to succeed. We recognize that learners experience the world in different ways, and we intentionally provide resources, support, and flexibility so that each student can access learning and feel a true sense of belonging.

Our work is grounded in building strong relationships, creating supportive and predictable spaces, and promoting excellence by honoring individual strengths, interests, and ways of communicating.

The Phoenix Program is a natural extension of this commitment—designed to expand opportunities and access for students who benefit from more specialized, autism-informed supports.

Autism-Friendly Business Spotlight

Today, we are thrilled to highlight Bodhi Salt.

Here is what they shared about their commitment:

At Bodhi Salt, we are proud to be a Certified Autism Friendly Business, providing a welcoming and sensory-conscious environment for children of all abilities and their families.

Our Sensory Salt Room for Kids combines play with the natural benefits of dry salt therapy (halotherapy). The room features pharmaceutical-grade salt, engaging toys, and fully customizable lighting, allowing families to adjust the color and brightness to create the most comfortable sensory experience for their child.

During each session, children breathe microscopic dry salt particles that may help support respiratory wellness, promote clearer airways, and provide relief from seasonal allergies and other respiratory discomforts. The calming environment also encourages relaxation and sensory regulation for many children with autism, ADHD, and sensory processing differences.

Our trained staff understands that every child is unique and is committed to creating a flexible, judgment-free experience. We proudly partner with families, schools, therapists, and community organizations to make wellness more accessible and inclusive for everyone. Salt therapy is a complementary wellness practice and is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease.
