Discover the Spark in Everyone

Knowledge

(conferences, courses, shining star program)

To seek information is one of mankind’s deepest cravings. I remember countless hours as my father consumed entire encyclopedias waiting for dinner each evening only to repeat this ritual the following night. Its no wonder as parents and professionals we seek to know more and more about our children and adults with autism and neurodiversity as they navigate their way first through early childhood, then through adolescence and ultimately through their lives. Stay with us we take you through a journey and fill your hearts and souls with a wealth of knowledge overflowing with abundance.

Adults & Adolescence

(keen, iSocial)

The journey through adulthood through the teen years is no simple feat. Through an abundance of first-time experiences to wet the appetite, we must temper the quest carefully of burning desires, especially for those on the spectrum with varying degrees of discernment when making decisions. Whether issues are pertaining to dating, puberty, getting and maintaining jobs, or planning a career path, the journey to and through adulthood is bittersweet. Once you have gone through it and you are living on your own, you can never go back.

Resources

(books, community, art/music lessons, sensory items)

Where does one go when they want to find other friends, peers, siblings, parents, professionals or anyone with a common interest? To a community. This resource we are proud to build so that we have what is needed, someone else who may be going through a similar situation and understands and can be a shoulder to lean on. There re books, arts, conversations, counselling, mediation, sensory resources, communication tools, online learning or anything else you could possibly imagine.

Early Childhood

(early intervention tools)

There is no better time in life than the beginning to set the trajectory for a child to get on the right track. As Temple Grandin will always say “you’ve got to get to them as soon as possible for the best outcome”. The sooner you get the diagnosis, the better. Get them into Occupational Therapy, Speech and language, Sensory Integration Training and so forth. Get them the tools they need! The latest tools such as eye tracking software and other technologies such as AI in order to provide the latest and greatest intervention strategies that you can trust for the right and best intervention for your child at the right time. We even have tools to help you through this process. We need to provide a variety of evidence- based methodologies so that users can ascertain what is best for their child when they are ready to use them through a collaborative team approach.

Nutrition

(products, information etc)

Proactive planning is what I have always believed in and so have many of the people I have worked with. That’s why we have partnered with many that believe a well thought out and planned nutritional diet will help a child receive the best nutrition for their own unique purposes. There are gut–brain connections especially with the autistic and neurodiverse population that need to be carefully considered and addressed. Also, because this population can be incredibly selective in their food choices it is imperative to make sure the right supplements are introduced if the individual selectively eliminates certain nutrients from their diets.
