So… Tell me about yourself… Matthew, Ontario Autism Advisory Panelist
I wrote an article for Medium introducing myself as a member of the Ontario Government’s Ontario Autism Program Advisory panel.
On May 30th, I was honoured to be selected as one of the self-advocate members on the Ontario Autism Program Advisory Panel. Our job over the next few months will be to review the feedback from the public consultations over the past few months in telephone town halls, MPP roundtables and the online survey. Out of that, the 20 of us will be providing recommendations to the Ministers of Children, Community & Social Services, Health and Education on how to provide needs based supports to autistic children in Ontario.
Why are we talking about lifting public health measures when almost 2 million kids under 12 are still unvaxed?
We need to do everything possible to increase vaccine uptake but Ford's mixed msging is not helping.

89% of Ontario seniors want to live at home for as long as possible.
State of home care:
-staffing shortages
-low wages (worse than LTC)
-for-profits provide most of care
As home care & LTC are part of a continuum, why are we only speaking about fixing LTC…but not home care?
First @ECHOAutismON session in 2021-22 for psychology today! As always, very impressed by the insights of our participants, both returning and new. Quality #autism care in the community is a reality - our participants continue to prove it and provide it 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
