Just your average nerd.

AUTISM SPEAKS CANADA IS SHUTTING DOWN!!! This is a huge win!!!!!!! Source: their website
Thanks to your generosity, Autism Speaks Canada has been able to deliver critical resources such as the Autism Response Team and My Autism Guide, while also investing nearly $5 million in Community Grants to strengthen access to community-based programs. Together with our partners including SickKids, DNAstack and McGill University we have also made important advances in research and science. Together, we have made strides in understanding autism, improving interventions, and successfully advocating for National Autism Strategy in parliament in 2024. After almost 20 years of dedication to building an inclusive Canada and after much consideration, Autism Speaks Canada will conclude its operations on January 31, 2025. The intentional decision to conclude was not taken lightly and has been weighed against responsible stewardship through and through. To honour donor intent, commitments, mission and values, ASC is proud to have maintained a responsible conclusion to this part of its story. We have, and continue to, advocate for increased funding of autism services, advocacy and research to serve this important and growing population. Looking ahead, Autism Speaks operations in the United States will continue fostering key collaborations with Canadian institutions and other global partners. This ongoing work will build on our shared legacy of impactful research and partnerships, advancing innovative, research-driven solutions to enhance the lives of individuals with autism worldwide. Once again, heartfelt thank you for the meaningful impact you’ve made in so many lives. For more information, on services and resources, please visit autismspeaks.org.

Thought I’d start with a life update, 1 month since my surgery and my knee is healing up and rehab has just begun. Recently made redundant from my job but I’m taking some time to recover and work out my next move.
