It simply means that you are a bit different from everyone else. And in a world where everyone strives to act, think and look the same - being different is truly something to be proud of. Thats why I’m very proud to be autistic. 7/7 #AutisticAndProud #AspiePower #ActuallyAutistic

The $15.4M announced in #Budget2021 includes a new $7M towards developing a National Autism Strategy. With the experience of a global pandemic highlighting major gaps in supports for Autistic Canadians, a robust #NationalAutismStrategy is needed now more than ever.
