Autism Canada 2009 Conference

Autism Conference1

AutismOne and Autism Canada are proud to present the inaugural AutismOne/Autism Canada Conference.

 

 The 2-day main conference will be held Saturday, October 31 and Sunday, November 1, preceded by a 1-day training program for practitioners, on Friday, October 30.

 Featuring over 20 of the most highly respected names in the autism community the conference provides the most up to date information to help your child. From implementing the best biomedical treatments to realizing the benefits of educational therapies to adolescence and adulthood issues the conference brings you the answers to be your child’s most effective healer and powerful advocate.

 Changing the course of autism will take cooperation and communication. We believe the conference is a most needed step in the international effort to end the epidemic. Join us to learn how it begins with one mother and one child recovering and then another and another and another and in our common future of care, treatment, recovery and prevention that includes you.
