Welcome to something that
is near and dear to our hearts. Autism. We have a 5 year old son
named Joshua who was diagnosed with autism in 2006. You can visit him

Place.

When we first got our diagnoses we were left in limbo not knowing what to do or where to turn to. We as a family decided to everything we could to find out what is available for us and we took all the courses we could on Autism to help us with our son. Find below some links that will help you get started and make sure you get what you are entitled to: Disabilty Tax Credit: This form you need to get filled out by your doctor and send it into Revenue Canada, this will help you receive more on your Child Tax Benifet and when you file your income tax. ACSD - Assistance For Children With Disabilities: If you are a parent caring for a child with a severe disability, you may be able to receive some financial help. The Assistance for Children with Severe Disabilities Program helps parents with some of the extra costs of caring for a child who has a severe disability. SSAH - Special Services At Home: The SSAH program is available for children and adults with a developmental disability and children with a physical disability who are residents of Ontario. SSAH can help individuals with disabilities to live at home with their families by providing time-limited funding to purchase supports and services not available elsewhere in the community. Easter
Seals - The program is for children and youth between the ages of
3 to 18 years of age with a chronic disability resulting in irreversible
incontinence lasting longer than six months. Some children under the age
of 3 may be eligible for funding depending on their diagnosis (for example,
Spina Bifida, Prune Belly Syndrome).
