From our good friends Paul Ceretti and Stacey Berton:

“The Autism Assistance Program has been created in response to the ongoing crisis many families experience in their quest to access appropriate and necessary therapy for their loved ones with Autism. The Autism Assistance Program and its founders have dedicated themselves to providing alternative solutions to help these families in crisis. While the Program is not meant to replace what the government already has in place to assist families and people on the Autism Spectrum, our intent is to help families who are affected by Autism and who are in crisis, access much needed support and therapy. The main method of accessing these supports is through community collaboration and through the initiation of ongoing fundraising campaigns.”

The Ontario Autism Coalition is proud to support and partner with an incredible mother/advocate from Kitchener, Stacey Berton. Stacey is fighting to access the services her son Wesley needs without having to surrender custody. Click on the link below to read a recent newspaper article about her struggle.
