Welcome to Autism Ontario, the province's leading source for autism information and referral. Our commitment extends beyond just providing information; we offer vital support and learning opportunities to autistic individuals and their families, ensuring they have access to necessary resources and connections at every stage of their lives.

Autism Ontario is more than an organization; it's a community spread across seven regions in the province, with dedicated Care Coordinators in each area. From Central East to West, including Toronto and the North, our team is regionally embedded to provide localized support.

Our mission is clear: To create a supportive and inclusive Ontario for autism. We envision the best life and a better world where autism truly matters. This vision is driven by our CARE values:
Collaboration: Working hand in hand with individuals, families, and communities.
Accountability: Upholding high standards of integrity and fiscal responsibility.
Respect: Embracing equity, diversity, inclusion, and understanding.
Evidence-Informed: Guiding our actions with knowledge and research.

Your support and involvement can help us achieve a world where the autism community is fully included, supported, and empowered. For a deeper insight into our work and impact, you can visit the Autism Ontario website or explore our social media.
