Joan Chaisson and April Billard of #Newfoundland are recipients of the Meritorious Service Medal for their leadership in supporting people with autism.
Their support group, Autism Involves Me, aims to help parents and to integrate those with #ASD into the community. #GGHonours
Many more supports are available for individuals with autism and their families than in past decades. Itโs very rare when nothing can be done to improve quality of life and functional capacity of autistic persons.
