It is with deep sorrow that we share the news that Leanne Holland Brown, dean of students for the Waterloo campus, passed away Wednesday. Leanne was a beloved colleague and generous friend. Supports are available to all within the Laurier community: https://t.co/ZrU6zmR1xV
Thank you to my Laurier family for sharing hugs with me today.
So grateful to you for helping me process.
While hearts are broken, it’s clear that Leanne’s kindness will forever guide our work. 💜

Yesterday, I had the pleasure of celebrating some amazing women in #KWAwesome with my Leading Women, Leading Girls awards.
Women & girls do incredible work to make our community a better place to live. It is always an honour to celebrate their achievements.

What an incredible event! Hundreds of families walked from Lisa MacLeod’s office to Parliament Hill. Congratulations to the organizers and to all the walkers. You guys are #Relentless! #CanadasNextStep#AutismMarch#onpoli
I also suggest a transparent survey of ALL families, wait-listed & in service, to find out key information (e.g.child's diagnoses, age, service needs/wants, time waiting/time since previous service, geographic location), so that policy-making can be fully informed. Happy to help!
Thank you! This was my first”scrum.” It was mildly terrifying, but I survived! The reporters were really kind to me and gave me space. Wow, those lights are bright!

If you think @fordnation's cuts to services with kids with special needs doesn't affect you, remember: we could all have a child, nephew, niece or grandchild diagnosed with autism. Brain injuries and mental illness could happen in your family. We need to pull together. #onpoli
a couple questions for you @LisaThompsonMPP. A lot of my clients are not toilet trained, will teachers be running toileting programs? What about aggressive or self injurious bx’s? Will teachers be following BIP’s to decrease bx’s? #AutismDoesntEndAtFord#FixTheOAP
