This is an amazing opportunity for Children on the spectrum to gain experiences and engage in opportunities in a wide range of Social and Community skills. The Camp is run by Behaviour Consultants and all camp leaders have extensive experience in ABA, Verbal Behaviour and working with children with Autism. Children get to attend various wonderful activities that our city has to offer such as the Vancouver Aquarium, Science World, Playland, etc. We use public transit to make our way throughout the city and the children get to practice social and community skills to, from and during our daily activities.
Parents and caregivers please provide the children with lunches and snacks for each day of the program.

• Conversations – both initiating and maintaining conversation on both preferred and non-preferred topics
