What is the Play Project?
The Play Project is a parent training program that teaches parents to implement evidence-based strategies to help their autistic children to engage, learn, and grow through play. This program helps fill in the gaps in the development of children with autism which are present in even the most verbal child with autism. Children, even those with Autism Spectrum Disorder, learn best through play and the Play Project uses this natural approach to help parents implement strategies in their own home. This program is fully funded in Ontario to eligible families through the Ontario Autism Program.
For more information on the Play Project and how we can help your child and family please contact 1-833-887-7529 or playproject@actlearningcentre.ca
