Book a Free ConsultationThe Ontario Autism Program (OAP) is a government-funded initiative designed to help families of children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) access the services and support they need. Through the OAP, eligible families receive funding that can be used toward:
Core clinical services, including ABA (Applied Behaviour Analysis) therapy
Behavioural, speech, and developmental support programs
Access to a network of OAP-approved providers, like Advance Therapy
Guidance and resources for parents and caregivers throughout the process
At Advance Therapy, we help demystify the program — from your first application to ongoing progress tracking — so you can focus on what matters most: your child's growth.
Your child may qualify for OAP funding if they meet the following criteria:
Confirmed ASD diagnosis from a qualified clinician
Under 18 years of age
Ontario resident
Required diagnostic documentation on file
Eligibility rules can feel confusing, especially for families who are new to the program. Our team offers step-by-step guidance to help you understand where you stand and what to do next.
