Educate. Advocate. Create. That’s the goal of The Positivity Spectrum, a nonprofit dedicated to building a more inclusive and supportive world for autistic people and their caregivers. They do this by not only promoting understanding and acceptance, but by offering resources to those who need them. The OSBF is supporting one of those resources with a spring grant.

The Positivity Spectrum received $50,000 for their Free Legal Clinic, which provides families with essential advocacy and guidance they could not otherwise afford. The project addresses two critical needs: helping families secure appropriate services through the IEP process and assisting caregivers with end-of-life planning, including guardianship and special needs trusts. By combining pro bono attorney oversight with law student volunteers, TPS delivers sustainable, high-quality legal support that transforms outcomes for autistic individuals and their families.

The OSBF has granted $19M+ since 1992. To learn more about our grants program, visit osbf.org/grants.

The 2025 Gratitude Report is here! See how we invested $1.4M+ in grants to promote justice in 2025. Last year was one of immense impact, from funding programs that inspire students to careers in law to supporting programs connecting individuals in rural communities with legal resources.

And of course, thank you for supporting the OSBF. We ask that you help us spread the word: Share this report with someone who cares about changing Ohio’s legal landscape for the better.
