FREEDOM decided to make one last splash for the end of the summer semester! We celebrated with a pool party and some ice-cold popsicles.

We are so incredibly grateful for the perseverance and passion of our team members this summer. There are not enough words to properly thank the amazing individuals who show up for this community each and every day.

We look forward to the fall semester with hope for what it will bring in line with each of our values: Mentorship, innovation, passion, teamwork, and sustainability. We thank you for going on this journey with us as we strive to provide quality mental and behavioral health services to the Autism community and beyond.

August is National Wellness Month! Here at FREEDOM, we are all about making your mental and physical wellness a priority. There are so many ways you can accomplish this!

Here is a list of 5 Health Habits you can start practicing today and throughout the month:

Drinking lots of water
The smallest act of self-care that can make a great impact is drinking lots of water every day. Stay hydrated, and your body will feel better.

Get your sleep
Lack of sleep can lead to a decline in mental and physical health. Commit to getting a full 8 hours of sleep every night as part of self-care.

Exercise
Just 30 minutes of walking every day can help boost your mood and improve your health. Commit to exercising every day for better wellness.

Try a relaxing activity
Activities like yoga, hiking, reading books, listening to music, or painting can improve your mood and are a great commitment to improving your health and wellness.
Another form of wellness is therapy. Here at FREEDOM, we provide individual, couples, and family counseling services using evidence-based strategies to help you and your family's overall wellness. Want to learn more or register for services?
Practice gratitude and positivity
You are what you think. Take time to practice gratitude and positivity when reflecting on life.

This week, we wanted to shine a light on FREEDOM's 2025 movement program: Swim Lessons!

FREEDOM's swim lessons teach individuals how to swim, rules and safety around water, and how to participate in water-based play activities. Therapeutically trained staff provide assessment and recommendations for the level of movement training needed.

Lessons occur weekly at a central FREEDOM pool. Each week, participants are provided with skills to practice and strategies for practicing those within the home environment.

The current swim lesson levels are:

Paddle Cub - Individuals who exhibit fear surrounding water-based activities

Beginner Lessons - Individuals who will get into the water, but require a flotation device to access water-based activities

Intermediate Lessons - Individuals able to swim on their stomach and/or back to get from the middle of the pool to an edge without a flotation device

Advanced Lessons - Individuals pursuing swim team readiness or aquatic activity testing (such as that required for a merit badge, lifeguard certification, etc.).

It's been an amazing summer, and we are so glad we were able to serve both new and returning families this year! Join us in cheering them on in the comments as they take what they've learned to the pool, the beach, the lake, and anywhere in between!

Want to join in on the fun next summer? Spots fill up quickly so be sure to subscribe to our newsletter for early registration opportunities next Spring!

Back to school can be a difficult time of transition for everyone involved! Whether you and your child are excited, nervous, or a little bit of both, it can be important to begin practicing routines and learning new structures before the school year begins.

Some routines you can start now include waking up routines and going to bed routines. If your child has more flexibility in the summer surrounding these routines, start with a time closest to when they are going to bed or waking up and move towards your school year time slowly each day (5 to 15 minutes closer).

Other routines may take talking with the teacher. When you go to meet the teacher, it can be important to ask about routines for unpacking, packing up, snack, or meal times. Set up and practice these routines at home. If there are certain sayings used in the classroom, practice using those sayings at home. If there are certain rules in the classroom, it can be important to go over those rules and why the teacher has them.

New school years can come with a lot of new information. Using visuals, social stories, and practicing ahead of time can help each student start off on the right foot for the school year ahead.

It's Parent Appreciation Day! Today recognizes the importance of parenthood in building strong, stable societies and celebrates the teamwork involved in raising children. We are blessed to work alongside and with some of the most amazing parents out there!

Here are some ways you can show appreciation to the parents in your lives:

Acknowledge their efforts:
- Let them know you see the challenges they face and admire their strength, love, and dedication.
- Offer practical support:
- Offer to help with childcare, errands, or provide a meal.

Listen and validate their experiences:
- Sometimes, just listening to their stories and offering empathy can make a big difference.

Share resources:
- Help them find support groups, therapists, or financial assistance programs.

Educate yourself about a variety of diagnosis:
Understanding the challenges and joys of raising a child with a diagnosis can help you better support these families.

Today is World Brain Day! We celebrate today to raise awareness and educate about neurological disorders and promote brain health worldwide.

Today emphasizes that brain health is essential throughout life, from childhood to old age. Autism is a neurodevelopmental condition that affects brain development and function. By promoting brain health awareness, World Brain Day indirectly supports the understanding and acceptance of neurodiversity.

It is important to have early detection and methods of prevention, and promote access to quality neurological care, rehabilitation, and assistive technologies. All of these can be crucial for those with Autism.

Here at FREEDOM, we believe in growing advocacy to support the health of our clients and families. Join us in recognizing today's importance in our community!

FREEDOM had a treat yourself day! With National Ice Cream Day on July 20th, we decided to celebrate early with some of our team. We got to enjoy some cold, delicious ice cream from the amazing workers at Unless U Scoops.

"It's so much bigger than ice cream. It's watching our students gain confidence and pride in themselves as they learn a new skill and excel. It's fostering an environment of inclusivity and understanding as we welcome those who may never have the privilege of working with those like our students before. It's learning to love others who are different than you, and showing Jesus to every person who walks through those doors."

-Meredith Binkley, Job Training Specialist & Unless U Scoops Manager

We had a blast supporting a local business with an amazing cause!
What is your favorite ice cream flavor?

Today is World Listening Day! We are celebrating the practice of listening as it relates to the world around us and environmental awareness.

Although today is not necessarily linked to Autism, there are some important correlations!

There are ways to identify and mitigate some of those common sensory and auditory needs, such as:
- Promoting understanding of auditory sensitivities
- Encouraging the creation of sensory-friendly spaces
- Exploring diverse ways of listening
- Advocacy for inclusive sound environments

This month, FREEDOM goes to Hope Heals Camp!

Hope Heals Camp is a series of four, week-long camps, a weekend-long retreat, and a year-round community offering rest, resources, and relationships to families experiencing disabilities.

Designed for Families
We know disabilities affect more than just the individual with the diagnosis. Hope Heals Camp is built for entire family units in which one or more people are living with disabilities.

All Ages & Diagnoses
Hope Heals Camp is not limited to a certain type of diagnosis or a specific age range. Participants of any age and experiencing all types of disabilities are invited.

Inclusively FAITH-Focused
Our sacred spaces exist so that families experiencing disabilities can experience the hope of Christ. While our mission and programming are rooted in the Christian faith, you do not have to follow Jesus to be welcomed into the Camp community.

FREEDOM has attended camp the past three summers, providing a qualified BCBA each week to help with behavioral needs! This helps the camp to accommodate even more families, which gives us more joy in being able to provide for our community. We are so thankful for this sacred collaboration!
