Shooting Stars Foundation is a Las Vegas–based nonprofit dedicated to uplifting children with autism and the families who love them. We provide access to essential services, funding support, and community-centered programs that make a meaningful difference in each child’s growth, confidence, and future.
Created by parents and professionals in the autism field, we understand how overwhelming it can feel to navigate a diagnosis, secure services, and find financial and emotional support. That’s why we're here — to make sure no family has to do it alone.
Every child deserves the chance to shine, and every caregiver deserves guidance, resources, and hope. Our work reflects that promise.
Shooting Stars Foundation was founded by Renee Rouse, a dedicated advocate with a deep passion for supporting children and families affected by autism.
As a professional in the Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) field and a compassionate community leader, Renee saw firsthand how many families struggled to access the services and financial support their children needed. Rather than standing by, she chose to take action — bridging the gap and creating a nonprofit rooted in empathy, respect, and true partnership.
Renee believes every child deserves the chance to learn, grow, and shine, and every parent deserves a champion in their corner. Shooting Stars Foundation is a reflection of that vision — and her commitment to walking beside families with encouragement, understanding, and hope.
