Our story…

Only a few weeks before Sawyers 3rd Birthday, he got his ASD diagnosis. Since then its been a wild ride of finding the supports he needs, and soon realizing us, his parents also were needing some support as well. Autism BC has provided us with a feeling that we are not alone, pointed us to different resources to help us out, connected us with other families in our area, link us up with educational workshops and programs and so much more!!   In British Columbia, 1 in 40 children has an  Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) diagnosis and there are approximately 60,000 children, youth, and adults on the spectrum. 

AutismBC is a small non-profit and registered charity that encourages the inclusion and acceptance of the entire autism community. We are a tight-knit and nimble organization that values the lived experience of our team and members. We prioritize listening to our members and making decisions that reflect their needs and wants.  We are a grassroots organization founded in 1975 to support people on the autism spectrum and their families. Since our humble beginnings, we have grown to become one of the most trusted non-profit organizations for autism in BC. We continue to support autistic individuals by providing parents and communities with knowledge and by engaging with people on the autism spectrum to create stronger, more diverse communities.
