During the month of April, we encourage communities across the province to show their support for the autistic community and Autism Nova Scotia. Through our programs and services, we are empowering autistic individuals to live their lives fully. We also provide resources and support to their families, caregivers, and professionals.
Together, we can take action to build a more inclusive future and celebrate acceptance and equity—not just in April, but every day.
This spring, we’re combining our Spring Garden Road and Bedford Highway offices into a brand-new, accessible, and welcoming space!
Our new central office will be located at 2737 Joseph Howe Drive in Halifax.
Staff will begin moving in April, with the full move completed by June. This exciting move will help us better serve our community and create more opportunities for connection and inclusion. We can’t wait to welcome you!
Mark your calendars for Saturday, June 7 for Walk YOUR Way presented by Carson Exports! Whether you walk, roll, stroll, or simply join us in spirit, your involvement is invaluable. Together, we can create a more accepting and inclusive community for everyone.
