Celebrate Autism Ontario's 50th Anniversary
Autism Ontario is celebrating its 50th anniversary! While we are proud of our accomplishments, we know there's still much work to be done. Together with the autism community, we are committed to promoting inclusivity and support for autistic individuals and their families.
Let's continue to make a difference, together.
Autism Ontario wants to celebrate with our families from across the province, so we have created “50th Anniversary Signature Events” that will take place throughout the year.
Our signature events will have staff from that region on hand to greet the families, some 50th swag on hand for kids (while supplies last), as well as a little something special.
To register and keep updated with the events, please visit Autism Ontario’s events page at www.autismontario.com/events
