ASO (Asperger's Society of Ontario)

ASO is a crucial support system within the Autism Spectrum Disorder community in Ontario. We are the only non-profit charity organization in Ontario dedicated solely to ASD1 (formerly known as Asperger's).

How do we support our community?
Through a variety of FREE services like our ActionLine: a helpline for anyone in Ontario who has a need, question, or concern related to ASD1. 

Common ActionLine users are:

• people with ASD1 who are struggling and in need of urgent support
• parents who want to learn more about the resources available to their children with ASD1
• teachers who have students with ASD1 in their class and need advice to best support them
• people with ASD1 looking to be connected with services that help with job interviews and accommodations

Since March 2020, ASO has seen a 64% increase in demand for the free services offered. ActionLine now receives over 2,400 requests for support per year.

Donating to ASO helps to keep this phone line open for all who depend on it. Thank you for investing in the health of our community!
