About
Founded by a parent who wanted to provide his son with the opportunity to experience sailing, connection, and belonging on the water, Spectrum Sailing has now impacted hundreds of autistic sailors and families across the country. The organization offers inclusive sailing programs for kids and adults, with a focus on water safety and properly fitted life jackets. Their mission is to make boating safer and more inclusive for everyone, and they rely on donations to continue their work. Spectrum Sailing is based in Chicago, IL, and offers camps and volunteer opportunities for those interested in getting involved. Their programs are designed to be hands-on and engaging, with minimal classroom time, allowing participants to learn and grow in a supportive environment.
