Helping Families Navigate the Next Steps

Supporting a child with Autism, ADHD, or other neurodevelopmental needs can feel overwhelming, especially when families are unsure which programs, funding options, therapies, or school supports are available.

At My Child Is Different, we help families understand their options and navigate the next steps. From government funding and disability benefits to therapy resources, school supports, and community programs, we make the process clearer, simpler, and easier to manage.

  • Start Here: Family Support Consultation

    An initial online meeting to learn about your child and family, explain our services, and identify which programs, funding options, therapies, or school supports may be relevant.

  • Personalized assistance with understanding the DTC process, organizing the required information, and preparing a clear and complete application.

  • Step-by-step guidance with registering your child for the Ontario Autism Program and understanding the services and pathways that may become available after registration.

  • Guidance for families who need help understanding their child’s educational rights, accommodations, IEP, IPRC process, and available school supports. We help parents organize their concerns, identify appropriate accommodations, and prepare for meetings with the school team.

Fill out this form and send it to us.

You don’t have to figure it all out alone.

We’re here to help you find the supports your child may be eligible for and guide you through the application process.
