xMinds Educator Grants

Our mission at Partnership for Extraordinary Minds (xMinds) is to improve the educational experiences and outcomes of the autistic students in Montgomery County, Maryland. To advance this mission, xMinds offers grants to help motivated educators pursue research-based trainings and purchase curricula and classroom materials that will enable them to better support their students on the autism spectrum. Read about some of our past grants.

Individual grants up to $100 for classroom materials and up to $250 for trainings will be awarded on a rolling basis by the xMinds Educator Support Committee as funding permits. The Committee will, in its sole discretion, determine which applications to grant, considering the Committee’s assessment of both the quality of the materials or training requested and the applicant’s potential to make use of them to advance the mission of xMinds.

We encourage applications from educators, paraeducators, administrators, and related service providers who support students on the autism spectrum in Montgomery County. We will prioritize new applicants, but will consider all applications.  Apply Online for an xMinds Educator Grant.
