Dialogue on Autism and Developmental Disabilities

Join us for a unique event designed to bring together community members to discuss the experiences of children and youth with autism and developmental disabilities and their families within our community. This event places a special emphasis on conversations with the African descent community to learn more about their specific needs and issues they face, whether a child or youth living with a disability, supporting children or youth with disabilities, or families seeking necessary services. This engagement will identify community-centred recommendations and help inform Africa Centre’s strategic decision-making.

• Engage in small and large group conversations to share experiences and insights
• Participate in activities designed to encourage reflection and dialogue
• Hear stories from individuals living with disabilities, their support and allies
