Seniors Resources

Seniors may face unique challenges both living with ASD and caring for a family memeber on the spectrum as they age. These three resource guides are a project of Autism Calgary, with valuable input from ‘aging caregiver’ volunteers, and support from the Government of Canada’s New Horizons for Seniors Program. Check out them out for some helpful information and resources!
