Florida Autism License Plate Announces the Start of 2020 Grant Cycle

SUNRISE, Fla., July 2, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Each year, the Florida Support Autism Programs Specialty License Plate generates funds that support nonprofit organizations providing direct services for individuals with autism and related disabilities in Florida. The Autism License Plate Fund and the Autism Services Grant Council are administered by Arc Broward, a nationally accredited, Florida, non-profit, Section 501(c)(3) exempt organization.

In 2019, over $106,900 was awarded to nonprofit organizations throughout Florida, bringing to life projects such as The HEAL foundations HEAL surf camp, internship opportunities for young adults with autism at Miami Children's Museum, among others.

"Every Autism license plate we put on the road is a rolling billboard reminding people that individuals with autism are a meaningful part of the community," says Dennis Haas, Chair of the Autism Services Grants Council in Florida, "It is amazing to see that even a small investment in a specialty license plate helps to fund the good work of these organizations throughout the state."
