Janet's Story

Why does the work of Autism Ontario still matter after 40 years? It’s really simple. Autism Ontario is extended family for parents with loved ones diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). Autism Ontario matters. Our family joined Autism Ontario in 1993, shortly after our daughter Grace was diagnosed with autism. Our membership number was 109, hinting at the humble beginnings of this organization. But that was also a different time. When Grace was diagnosed, we were told that the incidence of autism was only one in 10,000, not the 1 in 66 it is today. When you donate to Autism Ontario

Ethel's Story

My Autism Family My daughter Stacy was born in 1970, and diagnosed with autism at the age of 4. At that time, various doctors and specialists we saw had no knowledge of what autism was, and told me to ‘put her in an institution’. I was appalled, how could a mother lock her child away? What was I going to do? The answer was simple; I would find a way to raise our daughter. When Stacy started nursery school, I met other parents struggling to support their children on the spectrum. In response to these struggles, we joined the York Region Chapter of Autism Ontario and it was there I found a place

River's Story

When my son, River Christie-White, started school, he did not talk. In fact, until the age of about 8, there were no words. And until River was born, I did not know what autism was. Today, Autism Ontario can be there for you when you get the diagnosis, or in fact, at any time you need help. Their staff and volunteers give every day. Now, at 17, my First Nations teen speaks in front of crowds across Canada and the United States, spreading not just awareness about autism, but the need for inclusiveness for all, and particularly supports for children and families with special needs on reserves.

The Emotional Toolbox

Tony Attwood, a well-known psychologist in the field of Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD), conceptualized the Emotional Toolbox. It represents a collection of tools (strategies) designed to help people deal with negative emotions.

Gaming Console Setup and Considerations for Individuals with ASD

Congratulations! You’ve decided to make the plunge and purchase a gaming system for your (inner) child. Currently there are three popular gaming consoles: Sony PS3, Nintendo Wii (rumored to be succeeded by the Nintendo U around the 2012 holidays) and the Microsoft X-box. While each unit has its pros and cons, each unit seems to leapfrog the other year after year.

 

Developing Job Skills

Like many other parents of a youth with an Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), I find thoughts of the future can be positively paralyzing. To overcome that paralysis, I decided to focus on helping my son prepare for some form of work when he leaves school. The focus is not on career development, but simply to increase the options that will be available for him to make a meaningful life for himself once he leaves school.

This article provides some suggestions for other parents with similar goals, suggestions that I believe can be applied to individuals wherever they might be on the spectrum.

Développer les aptitudes à l’emploi

Comme de nombreux autres parents d’enfants ayant un trouble du spectre de l’autisme (TSA), je trouve que réfléchir à l’avenir peut avoir un effet carrément paralysant. Pour contrer cet effet, j’ai décidé de concentrer mes efforts à aider mon fils à se préparer à occuper un emploi quelconque à la fin de ses études. La priorité n’est pas de le préparer à faire carrière, mais plutôt d’élargir l’éventail des possibilités qui s’offriront à lui, à sa sortie de l’école, pour lui permettre de donner un sens à sa vie. Cet article formule quelques suggestions à l’intention de parents qui partagent des objectifs similaires; je crois que ces suggestions peuvent s’appliquer à tous les adolescents ayant un TSA, peu importe la gravité de celui-ci.

Préparation des enfants pour la maternelle : Des idées pour les familles

L’entrée d’un enfant à l’école est une étape importante pour toutes les familles. Lorsqu’un enfant a des besoins particuliers, il est encore plus important de bien préparer ce grand événement! Tous (l’enfant ayant un TSA, sa famille, le personnel de l’école et les autres élèves) tirent avantage d’une bonne planification, d’une information claire et de la réalisation de certaines activités importantes dans les mois qui précèdent le début de ce long périple à travers le système d’éducation.

Webinar - Addressing Bullying In Youth with ASD with Jonathan Weiss

This webinar reviews ways of supporting youth who are experiencing bullying to increase their coping skills and to help stop the problem from happening in the future. Effective interventions require knowledge and a team approach, and the current workshop discusses what children can do, and what adults can do, to make everyone feel more safe.

Webinaire - Lutter contre l’intimidation chez les jeunes qui présentent des troubles du spectre autistique (TSA) : Recherche et stratégies (en anglais)

Les enfants qui ont des troubles du spectre de l’autisme (TSA) sont souvent victimes d’intimidation à l’école. Il est donc important que les parents et les professionnels unissent leurs efforts pour remédier à ce problème.

Le présent webinaire présente différentes façons d’aider les jeunes qui sont victimes d’intimidation; il a pour objectifs d’accroître leurs habiletés d’adaptation et de contribuer à l’éradication du problème dans les années à venir. Les interventions efficaces s’appuient sur la connaissance ainsi que sur une approche d’équipe. Au cours de l’atelier, nous discuterons de ce que les enfants peuvent faire et de ce que les adultes peuvent faire afin que chacun se sente davantage en sécurité.
