Understanding and Supporting Your Child’s Behaviour
Facilitated by Erin Curtis, Certified ABA Parent Educator
• Lunch provided
• Afternoon Workshop (1:00 to 3:00)

Happy Autism Awareness Month!!

This time of year always brings a lot of reflection, and a reminder of how important acceptance, inclusion, and connection are in making sure people can access the support they need.

That is a big part of what we had in mind when planning the Resource Fair, creating a space where families can come, connect, ask questions, and see what is available right here in our community.

We will be joined by some incredible organizations who are doing this work every day, and we are really looking forward to bringing everyone together.

We hope you will join us in celebrating Autism Awareness Month at the Renfrew County Neurodiversity Resource Fair!
