# Star Autism Center *Minnesota organization named in the Attorney General's December 18, 2025 Housing Stabilization Services indictment announcement* **Star Autism Center** is an organization named by the [[Minnesota Attorney General]] on December 18, 2025, among entities whose principals were the subject of [[Housing Stabilization Services]] (HSS) indictments.[^1] The project's Dakota claims matrix records that the Attorney General announced the HSS indictments together with federal authorities. It grades them as complaint-allegations, with one guilty plea.[^1][^2] The record does not establish the outcome of any charge against the organization's principals.[^1] The December announcement was the second of two. On September 18, 2025, the Attorney General joined federal law enforcement to announce HSS indictments against principals of [[Leo Human Services]], Liberty Plus, [[Brilliant Minds Services]] and [[Faladcare]].[^2] On December 18, 2025, he announced further indictments naming [[Pristine Health]], SafeLodgings, [[Chozen Runner]], [[Retsel Real Estate]] and Star Autism Center, along with a guilty plea.[^1] The project's at-issue record, drawn from these two releases, notes that HSS was a program created by the State and paid by the State. It also notes that the program's indictments were announced with federal law enforcement alongside the State's own Attorney General.[^1][^2] In March 2026 the White House issued a presidential action establishing a task force to eliminate fraud. The at-issue record pairs that action with the two HSS announcements.[^3] ## Who - Star Autism Center is one of five entities named in the Attorney General's December 18, 2025 HSS announcement. The other four are Pristine Health, SafeLodgings, Chozen Runner and Retsel Real Estate.[^1] - The record names no officers, address or founding date for the organization.[^1] ## What - The December 18, 2025 announcement concerned HSS indictments against principals of the named entities.[^1] - The project's dossier grades the HSS indictments as complaint-allegations, not findings. It records one guilty plea across the announcements.[^1][^2] ## When - September 18, 2025: the Attorney General and federal law enforcement announced the first set of HSS indictments, which involved four other entities.[^2] - December 18, 2025: the Attorney General announced further HSS indictments, including those against principals of Star Autism Center, along with a guilty plea.[^1] - March 2026: the White House issued a presidential action establishing a task force to eliminate fraud.[^3] ## How - According to the project's dossier, both HSS announcements were made by the Attorney General together with federal authorities, on September 18 and December 18, 2025.[^1][^2] ## How many - The December 18, 2025 announcement named five entities and referenced one guilty plea.[^1] - The September 18, 2025 announcement named four entities.[^2] ## In the at-issue record - The project's at-issue record lists the two HSS announcements as item AI-Dakota-056. That item sits in the fraud-ledger section on Dakota County addresses in the Dakota claims matrix, and the matrix tags it as an allegation.[^1][^2] - The item does not state the organization's own address.[^1] ## Notes [^1]: Minnesota Attorney General, *News release* (Dec. 18, 2025) — announces further Housing Stabilization Services indictments naming Pristine Health, SafeLodgings, Chozen Runner, Retsel Real Estate and Star Autism Center, plus a guilty plea.
