Celebrating Autism Acceptance Month
Read the full story for "Celebrating Autism Acceptance Month "
Autism Nova Scotia has some big news to share!
We are excited to announce that our Central office in HRM is moving to a new location this spring! This move will bring together our Spring Garden Road and Bedford Highway (Sun Tower) offices into one location to better serve our community in an accessible and bright new space.
We are so grateful for the many years spent on Spring Garden Road and at Sun Tower. Both spaces have enabled us to evolve over time and grow to become the organization that we are today.
Now the time has come to move into a wonderful new space that will facilitate even more growth as we move into a future full of possibilities!
We understand that this will be a big change for many people. Please know that we are committed to making the transition as smooth as possible for everyone.
New Location:
Our Spring Garden and Bedford offices will move to 2737 Joseph Howe Drive in the West End of Halifax. Staff from the Spring Garden Road office will begin moving in April, and the Bedford office will begin moving in May, with the entire move completed by June.
Our new office will be located on the 2nd floor of this two-storey building, which is part of the Manulife Business Campus complex. The new office includes beautiful new spaces for QuickStart Nova Scotia, PASS, employment services and recreation programming, along with our Central office administrative teams.
Parking & Access:
Parking spaces will be available for families and program participants, identified with the Autism Nova Scotia logo, at the back of the building, which is where our entrance is located. There is also an elevator with access to the 2nd floor.
Public Transit:
The new office can be accessed via Highway 102. It is close to the Halifax Shopping Centre and the Armdale Roundabout, which connects to Chebucto Road, Quinpool Road, Herring Cove Road and St. Margarets Bay Road.
Nearby bus stops include:
We are committed to minimizing disruptions to our programs and services throughout this process. More importantly, we can’t wait to welcome you to our new space! There is so much to be excited about. Let’s keep moving forward, together!
If you have any questions about our office move, please email info@autismns.ca.
