OUR MISSION

Support should feel human.

All Hands in Autism Foundation connects people with autism and their families with immediate support, trusted resources and a community that sees the whole person.

We are parent-led and community-first. That means we listen before we act, respond to real needs and make help easier to reach—whether that is a communication device, help staying housed or a joyful holiday memory.

HOW WE HELP

See a need.
Fill a need.

We begin by listening, then work with families to identify the practical support that can make the clearest difference today.

OUR STORY • MEET OUR LEADERSHIP

Sabrina Howard
CEO & Founder

All Hands in Autism Foundation began because one parent knew that families deserve more than a list of resources. They deserve someone willing to listen, respond and walk beside them.

As a single mother of four children with autism, Sabrina spent nine years at home homeschooling, researching and creating practical ways to meet her children’s individual needs. She holds a bachelor’s degree from Grand Canyon University and brings the perspective of a parent, educator, advocate and community builder to every part of the Foundation.

Grounded in faith and resilience, she transformed the challenges of navigating diagnoses and limited resources into a community-centered mission that began operating in 2024. Through the Foundation, the All Hands Autism Circle, the Sabrina Leanne Podcast and hands-on family support, she helps people find useful information, practical relief and connection with people who understand.

“Autism is a spectrum, and so are everyone’s experiences. Respect people’s points of view, regardless of your own personal journey. Two things can be true at once.”
MISSION

A brighter future

Enhance the lives of people with autism through vital resources, education and advocacy while fostering acceptance and understanding.

VISION

An inclusive tomorrow

A world where people with autism are embraced, celebrated and supported with opportunities to flourish and contribute.
