About this service
OCCASIO is a social-recreational respite program for children and youth (10 yrs+) with autism. Occasio means opportunity in Latin, and although opportunity looks different for each participant, the goal of the program is to provide opportunities for growth. Occasio empowers participants to build relationships with their peers in a safe and supportive environment, while also providing families with easy access to respite support.
Community program activities include things such as visits to Edmonton attractions like the Valley Zoo, West Edmonton Mall, and the TELUS World of Science, attending local festivals, sporting events, and concerts. Occasio also offers centre-based programming with calmer environments. These include games nights, art activities, and Lego building, to name a few.
