🍕 Day Program Cooking Class – March 24 🍕
This week our participants rolled up their sleeves and got creative in the kitchen! They prepared deep‑dish mini pizzas, choosing their own toppings and learning hands‑on cooking skills along the way.
Everyone had a great time mixing, baking, and of course… tasting their delicious creations! 😄👏
Great job, everyone — we’re already excited for our next cooking adventure!

HUGE thank you to everyone who came out to support our semester-end Theatreworks performance in partnership with Stageworks Academy! 🎭

We were so excited to have Mayor Lars Hansen - City of Leduc, Councillor Brett Baynes, representatives from the Leduc FCSS Board and LINX Board, and so many family members in the audience. We even convinced Councillor Baynes to join us on “stage”!

Our participants absolutely shined — showcasing their improv, musical theatre, and growing confidence in such a big way. We couldn’t be more proud of the courage and creativity they brought to the performance.

A special thank you to the City of Leduc for the grant support that helps make opportunities like this possible. 💛

Rock your fun and colorful socks today in early celebration of World Down Syndrome Day!

03/18/2026

As we advocate for a more inclusive society this World Down Syndrome Day, we must be careful with the words we use to describe disability. Language is often the first step toward either connection or isolation.

People with Down syndrome may have an intellectual and developmental disability. This means they may need extra help to learn skills like talking, reading, or writing.

However, words like "mentally handicapped," "backward," or "re****ed" are outdated and offensive.

These labels are harmful because they:
❌Create Barriers: They focus on what a person cannot do, rather than their unique gifts and talents.
❌ Lead to Loneliness: Harmful labels fuel the stigma and discrimination that leave people "socially absent" even when they are physically present.
❌ Undermine Rights: Everyone has the right to be treated as an equal member of society.

True connection grows when we see people for who they are—individuals with their own identities and interests.

Let’s stand by using language that respects the dignity of every person.

NEW PROGRAM!

“3rd Space” is an environment separate from home, school, or work where you can go without needing to spend money.

By providing a safe place that you can trust, our goal is to set you up for success by helping to navigate employment and housing opportunities, as well as connecting you with other organizations and programs to meet your needs.

There will be access to computer stations so you can work on your goals, as well as occasional learning opportunities in the form of learning sessions and guest speakers.

3rd Space is open for in-person drop-ins at the Autism Edmonton office from 10 am to 3 pm every Tuesday.
