The company's Founders, Chris Olmanson and Marissa "Missy" Pittard, have personally and professionally witnessed the challenges families face when trying to find providers and services. Their Mission is simple, but not easy. "Create a world in which every parent can sleep well at night knowing they’re doing all they can to set their child up for a happy and healthy life."

Beaming Health wants to be the leading autism resource for parents. Their goal is to be a one-stop shop for autism resources that parents can trust. Their directory is filled with listings of local autism support services in your area found by their team. They've created a Beaming Score to help parents "grade" providers listed on the website. As Chris admits during our conversation, it's not perfect, but in my opinion, it's a strong start!
