TTAP was honoured to participate in this important initiative to strengthen partnerships that can make a meaningful difference in the lives of children and adolescents with disabilities.

Our team had an amazing time meeting students, teachers and fellow partners throughout the day. The energy around our booth was incredible, with lots of questions, conversations, laughter and interactive activities that reminded us why community engagement matters.

Thank you to the Ministry for trusting TTAP to be apart of this initiative.

April is Sexual Assault Awareness Month 💙

This month is not about statistics or headlines.
It’s about people.

It’s about creating spaces where individuals feel safe, heard, and respected, without pressure to share, explain, or relive anything they’re not ready to.

Support can look like:
• Listening without judgment
• Respecting boundaries
• Believing someone’s experience
• Checking in with care, not curiosity

This series is about educating and providing a safe space for everyone to know Your wellbeing comes first.

Let’s continue building spaces where more people can experience safety, trust, and care.

Different minds. One world. Celebrating understanding and inclusion on World Autism Day. Let’s be inclusive, let’s create a supportive culture.
