Virtual Town Halls: The Future of Autism Supports & Services in Alberta

What: We are inviting individuals and families from the autism community to join one of our upcoming Town Halls to discuss the future of autism supports and services in Alberta for all ages (across the lifespan) in the post-pandemic climate.

This is an opportunity to identify common concerns (access to programs, quality of service delivery, critical gaps, barriers, funding … ) and practical solutions for a brighter future.

Why: Sharing our lived experiences will help each of us to address our own needs (families and autistics,) guide our work as a collective community, and help build a call for action.

Let’s work together to preserve Alberta’s established culture in supporting our most vulnerable citizens.

When: Please register in advance for one of the events.
