Beyond the OAP: Accessing Regional Resources
The Ontario Autism Program (OAP) is not the only place you can receive funding for your child. Do you need additional support for sports programs? Funding for respite care? Discounts at main attractions? Do you know who to contact if you are in a crisis?
Come join our Beyond the OAP: Accessing Regional Resources sessions where you will learn about additional supports in your region and services that are available to you and your family. Choose the location you are interested in, and we look forward to seeing you then!
