The Autism Society of Edmonton Area is excited to announce that it is the recipient of a $14,813 Community Spirit Donation Grant from Alberta Culture and Community Spirit.  The grant money will help ASEA to serve individuals with autism and their families in new and better ways.  ASEA receives many phone calls from families and professionals who want to access our services or even require emergency assistance. That's why a portion of the grant money will be used to set up an improved phone system in our office.  The grant money will also be used to develop a foundation for ASEA's volunteer program, so that we can better connect with people who want to help their community.  The Autism Society would like to sincerely thank Alberta Culture and Community Spirit for this valuable grant, with all the exciting new opportunities that come with it.
