ACT Today! -- Stands for Autism Care & Treatment Today! Our mission is to increase immediate access to effective autism treatments through grants to families with lack of access and/or limited financial means. ACT Today! is the brainchild of several parents with autistic children and professionals in the field who have seen progress through certain types of medical and therapeutic treatment, particularly Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA). Together with Dr. Doreen Granpeesheh, the pre-eminent authority on ABA and the world's leading provider of services, the group formed ACT Today! to do just as the name implies: take immediate action to treat autism.

Malibu Special Education Foundation -- The Malibu Special Education Foundation services children with disabilities, their families as well as the teachers, administrators and staff.
