Online and Virtual Assistance

Autism Response Team (ART) members are specially trained to connect families with information, resources, and opportunities. They are available to answer calls and emails. Your call or email will be routed to a team member for your region.

We are not a direct medical, legal advice, or service provider, so we don't make appointments or direct referrals. However, our team will provide you with support, encouragement, and assistance with locating autism service providers in your community.

The Autism Response Team can help you learn more about:

  • Where to get a diagnosis
  • Schools and special education
  • Advocacy and support
  • Adult services - including post-secondary programs and employment
  • Inclusion and community activities
  • And much more!
