About

Spectrum Unlocked is a free resource library for parents navigating an autism diagnosis. Built by autism parents, the site exists because the support landscape is opaque, the systems do not advertise themselves, and parents should not have to spend months learning what programs they qualify for.

The site includes:
 - 10 interactive tools covering autism screening, potty training readiness, sensory profile assessment, IEP goal building, IEP advocacy letter writing, IEP meeting preparation, visual schedule creation, routine building, milestone tracking, and meltdown pattern tracking.
 - State-by-state autism benefits guides for all 50 US states, covering Medicaid, waivers, ABLE accounts, and appeal processes.
 - 120+ blog posts on the daily reality of raising autistic children, including diagnosis, school advocacy, therapy, behavior, sleep, and family life.
 - Free printable resources including visual schedules, IEP preparation checklists, sensory profile worksheets, and behavior tracking logs.
