COVID-19
The health and safety of our autism community and beyond is at the forefront for Autism Awareness Centre Inc. For the first time in our 18 years as a company, we have not been able to offer conferences or in person trainings since the pandemic began in mid-March of 2020.
As a result of the ongoing pandemic, Autism Awareness Centre Inc. (AACI) has been hard hit. Conferences, trainings and sales from our bookstore are what keep us going as we operate with no sponsorship, funding or grants of any kind. There are small things you can do to help us keep going and continue the global work that we do.
We are taking steps to offer new ways of learning. For example, we have launched a series of inexpensive E-books with more to come. We offer monthly webinars, both live and on demand, to support on-going development and education for families and professionals. Studio 3 Canada is offering Day 1 of our 3 day Low Arousal Approach training online.
If you need any resources, we have a wide selection of products in our bookstore. The proceeds from the bookstore go directly back into AACI operations. We are continuing to process orders quickly and efficiently. Please order from us if you need something.
When we can offer our conferences and trainings again, please support them by attending. We will continue to offer a wide variety of topic and world class speakers at our conferences across Canada.
Thank you for your kind words of support during this difficult time for all of us. I am still here writing, answering your e-mails, and posting important information on our Facebook page. If you need any help, I will continue to do my best to find answers for you. Stay safe and stay well in these uncertain times we are continuing to face.
Sincerely,
Maureen
