Celebrating Autism Acceptance Month
Read the full story for "Celebrating Autism Acceptance Month "
In our province today, 1 in 34 children under the age of five have a confirmed diagnosis of autism. This statistic and our commitment to the autism community inspires our work and pushes us to do what we can to enhance the lives of these children throughout their lifespans.
Walk YOUR Way is an annual event to raise awareness and funds for much-needed autism programs and services in communities across Nova Scotia. We are committed to creating a world where all people on the autism spectrum can live their lives fully.
Proceeds from the Walk YOUR Way 2022 Raffle directly support the programs and services that our nine regional chapters deliver to meet the needs of our local communities.
Create change in your community and have the chance to win:
Our Walk YOUR Way Raffle is now closed. Thank you for your generous support!
(Please note Autism Nova Scotia staff cannot participate in the Walk YOUR Way Raffle.)
