Freddie Ford Family Foundation

The Freddie Ford Family Foundation is a 501 (c)3 nonprofit organization located in St. Louis County, Missouri. The Organization was established in 2018 by its Founder and Executive Director Felicia Ford, who has  loved ones who have been diagnosed on the autism spectrum. Thus, Ms. Ford is uniquely qualified as a parent to help educate others on the needs of children on the autism spectrum and promote inclusion. 

We offer several social programs and events to autism families to encourage a community connection and to allow individuals with autism to enjoy activities free from judgment.  Our goal is to obtain a space where we can expand our programs by providing a children’s gym for social interaction open to all children and a clinic to provide diagnostic and therapeutic interventions. We provide support group meetings for parents of individuals on the autism spectrum with speakers who share resources and insight to help cope with the challenges of raising children with autism.  Through our community events, we spread awareness of autism and educational materials to create a greater understanding of autism and how it affects those on the spectrum as well as the ongoing needs of the families.

Our organization is spearheaded by volunteer efforts and donations from generous and kindhearted supporters. We look forward to partnering with any organizations that would like to help create fun experiences for individuals with autism.
