Welcome to "Keeping Runners Safe – Safety and Autism", an interactive presentation in partnership with Autism Ontario West Regopm and Autism & Behavioural Services.

This virtual, one-hour presentation is designed for parents and caregivers of children who engage in behaviours that may put their safety at risk. Parents will learn to identify and prepare for those risks, and make a plan. This presentation focuses on children with autism in high risk situations but all parents and professionals are welcome to participate. You will receive a checklist that will help you start to assess potential risks and how set up a safety plan specific to your child.

Since this workshop is funded by the Ontario Autism Program (OAP) as a Foundational Family Service, examples provided during the workshop will tend to focus on children with a diagnosis of autism.

You will be asked for your OAP Client Information Reference Number during registration. If you believe your child is registered with the OAP and need help finding your number, watch this video or email abs@tvcc.on.ca.
