Adults Count! A survey on Youth and Adults with ASDs in Ontario

It has been two decades since there has been a provincial survey on adults with Autism Spectrum Disorders in Ontario. Since the 1990s, there have been major changes to the population of adults that are identified with an Autism Spectrum Disorder. Many adults seen in clinical practice report that their ASD and related symptoms provide challenges that are not addressed.

Adults Count! is a province-wide survey that will provide important information of the profiles and needs of youth and adults on the Autism Spectrum.

To receive information about Adults Count! or to participate in this survey, contact us at: adult.survey@redpathcentre.ca or 416-920-4999 x 0165 or visit Redpath Centre's website.

Health Care Service Use for Adults and Youth living with ASD in Ontario: researchers seek family experiences

Are you a parent of a teenager or adult with Autism Spectrum Disorder? Is your son or daughter getting the health care they need? What has your experience been like using health services such as doctors, dentists or psychologists? This project will ask you questions about your recent contact with health professionals regarding your adolescent (12+)or adult son or daughter with ASD. Also, if you are not using any services, we would like to know why and whether you are satisfied with your situation. Your voice is important and we need to hear from you!

Parents will receive an honorarium for their time.
