Raise money for South Asian Autism Awareness Centre
The South Asian Autism Awareness Centre (SAAAC) is a registered charity that began in response to the culture of shame, stigma and silence associated with special needs, especially Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), in the South Asian community.
In subsequent years, SAAAC expanded its scope and services to support low-income and New Canadian families living with ASD because these families lacked access to vital ASD services and information due to language barriers, low incomes, and lack of networks.
Currently, SAAAC serves over 200 families and has an active volunteer base of 120. The Centre provides free and subsidized programming including Speech-Language Therapy, Applied Behavioural Analysis (ABA) Therapy, arts programming, and much more.
