Our mission is to provide meaningful support to children and families living with autism across Canada.As a community that personally understands and cares, we provide practical help and lasting hope to families living with autism. We mobilize support across Canada and make social impact through three main initiatives.Community Services:Our core service, the Legends Mentoring Program, provides personal support to individuals with autism. Taking place one-on-one and in groups in the community, these mentoring relationships often lead to improved social interactions and greater senses of inclusion. Currently offered to children, we are now expanding to adults during key life transition periods, such as the move into the workforce.Community Events:Jake's House hosts fun, interactive events, designed to bring the autism community together and empower guests to socialize in safe and entertaining environments. Our signature event, the annual Holiday Party, has been welcoming and spreading joy amongst hundreds of families for 14 years. Currently hosted in Toronto and Ottawa, we are expanding to more cities across Canada.Community Living:Jake's House is addressing the housing gap for Canadians with autism. Currently in development in collaboration with community partners from multiple sectors, our solutions will make a range of needed supports accessible, ensuring individuals' unique needs are met. Soon, Jake's House will be offering those who need it a place to call home.
