Premier @dave_eby and @MitziDeanBC of MCFD have declined our request for consultation.
True consultation with ALL stakeholders is imperative.
The pilots are supposed to be open in the spring. So we started our timer Feb 8th.
How long do families need to wait for consultation?
We are hearing that once again emails and meeting requests are going unanswered by Premier David Eby.
Our requests for meetings have gone unanswered. So far, 'consultation' is not off to a great start.
Every child in BC deserves the supports they need to thrive, and we are focused on listening to families of children and youth with support needs.
We will maintain individualized funding for children with an autism diagnosis. https://t.co/AvpUOK6KqM
NEW - After pressure from families, the government is pausing the autism hub model and will maintain individualized funding for children with an autism diagnosis instead of phasing it out in 2025. #bcpoli
Not sure when it became the norm for the @BCNDPCaucus to be okay to ignore the pleas of an entire disability community but it's time to break the cycle.
Hit pause. Let's meet. Let's consult. Let's get this right.
