As a member of the Canadian Autism Spectrum Disorders Alliance (CASDA) since 2015, national leadership summit for children and people with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD), our organisation wishes to share with you a brief summary of the situation for Canadians who have an ASD (French text only).

During a 2012 rally in Montreal, Quebec, to increase public awareness about the growing needs of people with autism spectrum disorders (ASD), Dr. Hébert proposes national policy change to resolve the pervasive concerns about wait times in Canada. The Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) in the U.S.A. is a policy to consider for the protection of the rights of our infants and toddlers with ASD.

In a 2013 interview on Canal M, Dr. Hébert also shares a solution provided by Buds in Bloom© to reduce wait times for children with ASD, who need specialized resources. To listen to the interview, click this media file (interview in French).
