About this organization

FOOTPRINTS provides respite services for families with children diagnosed on the Autism Spectrum in Durham Region. With programs located in Pickering and Whitby, FOOTPRINTS strives to provide respite care to as many as possible.

Having a child diagnosed with Autism can be one of the most stressful situations a parent ever faces.

The diagnosis is just the beginning of the journey as both the child and parent must learn together how to identify, prepare for and manage the variety of behaviours that make up the Autism Spectrum.

These might include impaired cognition and communication, social deficits, frequent tantrums and other challenging behaviours that often lead to physical and emotional exhaustion for all involved.

Faced with such overwhelming stress and barriers, many parents of children with Autism find themselves overwhelmed and unable to cope.
