To the amazing team at SEAPARC,

I am so deeply grateful for the friendly, caring, and enthusiastic support I’ve received over the last 20-plus years for my son, who has autism. You may not know this, but I consider the amazing team at SEAPARC an extension of our family and it brings a little peace to a world that can be complex as a caregiver.  My son loves to go to SEAPARC and it is an essential part of his being connected to his community. 

Whether he is swimming, learning to use the gym, participating in the annual SEAPARC garage sale, waiting for me to finish the monthly SASS meeting (haha) or simply stopping in for a snack on the way home from work – we are so grateful for the positive impact this community centre for healthy living creates in his life! What you do matters and we appreciate you.  Thank you SEAPARC.
