The Ministry of Children and Youth Services is continuing to support summer programs for children and youth with Autism Spectrum Disorders through more regionally based programs. The 2009 One-to-One Support Worker Reimbursement Fund is available to Ontario families of children or youth with ASD who retain the services of a one-to-one support worker for their child to attend a community summer camp or summer program.

Maximum reimbursements of $600, per child or youth, (18 years or younger) will be made to help subsidize services purchased between July 1 and September 4, 2009.

Camp History York Region Chapter has made a profound difference in the lives of families living with autism. Our camp has been in continuous operation for over 20 years. Our parent volunteers initiated York Region Chapter's children's co-op summer program in 1987. Partnering with Kerry's Place Autism Services in 2006, our services expanded to specialize in suppporting youth with Asperger's Syndorme and High Functioning Autism. With a 3-year grant from The Ontario Trillium Foundation in 2009 we have been enabled to expand services to adults living with ASD.
