Real Conversations. Real Learning 💬✨

We recently hosted a GCAConnects Adult session on sexual health in collaboration with Toronto Public Health. The session created space for open questions and practical guidance around body autonomy, boundaries, safety, and building confidence in navigating sexual health conversations 💬

Now, we’re continuing the conversation with a stronger focus on caregivers ⭐️

Our upcoming GCAConnects Sexual Health session for caregivers focuses on the essentials: understanding sexual health, finding trusted resources, and how to start and navigate these conversations. We’ll also explore why these discussions matter and what it means to be an askable caregiver who listens and responds to both verbal and non-verbal communication.

A familiar voice returns.

We’re excited to have Rick Peckham back as our MC for the 8th Annual ICON & Geneva Centre for Autism Charity Gala, not for the first time, and hopefully not the last.

When someone truly understands the heart of the event, it shows in every moment. Rick is a graduate of Geneva Centre. He found the confidence and passion to pursue an acting career and is now represented by the Mann Casting Agency.

“It is a privilege and an honour to be part of the ICON & Geneva Centre for Autism Charity Gala. My role as Master of Ceremonies is highly rewarding. It allows me to speak of my personal experiences with the Geneva Centre and reflect the organization's high standards, values, and hard work. Without the Geneva Centre, I would not have the confidence to be a Public Speaker. I hope my story can help inspire others on the spectrum to find their confidence and purpose and improve their lives.”

Thank you, Rick, for being part of our journey and helping us bring this evening to life again 💙

If you want to meet Rick, get to know him better and support Geneva Centre join us on
April 29th, 2026 at 6:00 pm at Crystal Fountain Event Venue.

A burst of colour and creativity filled our space 🎨✨

Last month, creativity was in full swing at our Adult Day Program. With the amazing Sarah from Canvas Paint Parties, our group jumped into the colourful world of painting. Mixing custom shades, playing with brush strokes, and adding personal flair along the way 🖌️

The best part? Teamwork brought it all together into one stunning landscape masterpiece.
