Welcome to My Personal Page

Dear Family and Friends,
I participate in Autism Speaks Canada Walk because I want to bring our communities together and make the connections between services and families. We have been able to meet a lot of wonderful people through ASC and I want to help expand our reach. Jackson and us as a family have so many amazing people in our circle now and I want to thank you all for your support.
As the prevalence of autism continues to rise, it’s more important than ever to fund research and services so that people with autism have the opportunity to meet their full potential. In fact, Walk dollars have gone towards training Early Childhood educators, helping newly diagnosed families navigate the health care system, and young adults learning skills to help them find jobs – and that is just to name a few.
Here are some of the things that we’ve learnt about autism in the last 10 years…
- Autism can be reliably diagnosed by age 2.
- High-quality early intervention does more than develop skills.
- One third of children and adults with autism are nonverbal.
- Most adults with autism (84%) remain living with their parents.
- Over 80% of adults with autism are unemployed.
There’s still so much more to learn…and you can help.
By making a donation and supporting my efforts, you are making a difference to the autism community.
