@MacLeodLisa Do you just not believe us or not understand?? What you are offering our kids with autism helps none of us. Give these kids enough support to access the therapy they need to thrive as they grow older. Their future depends on this! This is about hours not money!
@JILLSLASTWORD@OntAutism Two kids diagnosed, 9 and 3. Younger gets 30 hrs/wk therapy, older on waitlist. I’m a Professional Engineer who has needed to put my kids first and my work second. Raising kids with autism has compromised my career and income, but Lisa MacLeod has now compromised my kids.
Thankful for the opportunity to meet with local MPP Rudy Cuzzetto today to share my concerns with changes announced for the Ontario Autism Program. Thanks Rudy!
Grateful to #MississaugaLakeshore resident @rosannar1973 for elaborating on her concerns with the Ontario Autism Program after her recent interview on @PnPCBC. Looking forward to sharing her perspective with Minister @MacLeodLisa & Parliamentary Assistant @AmyFeePC. #ForThePeople
My interview with CBC today regarding the government announcement to “clear the waitlist” for autism. Clearing the waitlist amounts to everybody getting nothing. From 30 hours of therapy per week down to 2. Anyone have an extra $70,000 to spend each year on what we just lost?
"Pay now or pay later" says @rosannar1973 on changes to Ont. autism program. "We have a bunch of kids that are either going to get the help they need now & without that help...it's going to cost a lot more money. They’re going to need to be supported for the rest of their lives."
"We want all #Ontarians to see what we see in each person who has #ASD. They have amazing things to offer when we create #environments in which they can thrive.”-@MSAutismOntario
