We’re walking for Autism this May!
The Connecting Futures team is taking part in the Walk for Autism fundraiser by Aspect, stepping up to raise awareness and $1,500 in support of the autism community.

As an inclusive youth employment specialist, raising awareness of autism and championing inclusive opportunities for young people is at the heart of what we do. Every step helps spark conversations, build understanding, and support meaningful inclusion.

To keep our team motivated with their steps, we will have a prize for the winner and also present the wooden spoon.

If you can, please support our walk or cheer us on 💪✨
