Above is a link to a Global news clip last night regarding ongoing Autism Funding Problems. The direct funding option was taken away in September 2009 and the damage continues to spread.
This just highlights the fact that individuals with autism in this province have no legal rights when it comes to accessing health care. The government can and does change and take away funding on a whim and our kids are paying the price.
Christy needs to make good on her promise of change and putting families first. Making autism treatment universally accessible should be a priority for her please take a few minutes to contact her here and let her know that http://www.christyclark.ca/designate/
