In February, 2025, Balance Autism became the proud partner of Metro West Learning Center. The union of these two organizations signifies a shared commitment to improving outcomes for individuals with autism and other developmental disabilities across central Iowa. With enhanced resources, innovative programming, and a broader network of support, Balance Autism is intentionally positioned to make a significant impact in the lives of the families they serve.
Metro West's strong foundation and expertise is why Balance Autism was interested in collaborating with Metro West. We aim to honor the legacy of the organization while introducing new opportunities and enhancements that will benefit you and your loved ones. Our commitment to providing outstanding support and services remains our highest priority.
Together, we unite science with imagination, evidence with creativity and research with compassion – to bring balance to the lives of those we serve.

Balance Autism is more than a workplace—it’s a community built on care, compassion, and connection. Together, we celebrate every success, big and small. We’ll support your journey as you help others discover their potential.
