Grants for Autistic Family Members

No joke – Sheletta Brundidge has secured $200,000 in grant funding for her Autistic children's needs.

And today, she's going to help you learn how to get some of that grant money regardless of your child's disability. You can use this money to fund therapy and healthcare needs, on top of everyday needs like weighted blankets, trampolines, fences, and home security systems. We'll talk about how to find grants, how to write a successful application essay, and how to avoid scams as you conduct your search.

Sheletta will also talk to us about how she built her own media company to support and uplift her community, and why running an ethical business and living in integrity has been so critical to her success.
