Curious about our therapeutic kids and teens programs?  Check out the options below for our 2025-26 school year.

If you’re not sure where to start, just give us a call at 289 678 0581 or email our intake team at info@nowwhatsupports.ca and we’ll help you narrow down the options!

  • Children and teens are placed in therapeutic programming in collaboration with families and the clinical team in order to ensure that every child will thrive in a program that fits their individual needs and goals – not every program is the right fit for every person
  • Programs are capped at low ratios to ensure each child is set up for success
  • Payment for group programs is required in advance on registration to hold your placement
  • Programs are generally covered by Social Work (MSW) under most benefit plans
  • All programs can be covered by Ontario Autism Program (OAP) Core Funding
  • Flex sessions: Programs are registered by the school term. For prepaid programs that are running longer than 8 weeks, we offer a specific number of ‘flex sessions’, depending on the length of the term.
