Walk YOUR Way for Autism - Stepping in the Right Direction for Autism

Thank you for joining us at Walk YOUR Way 2025!
 

We've raised a collective $211,227 for Autism Nova Scotia programs and services province-wide! Thank you for your generous support, we hope to see you again next year.


​-------------------------------------------------------------------------------


On June 7, we will come together in NINE different locations across the province in-person and virtually to celebrate the Autistic community and continue to build understanding, acceptance and inclusion for Autistic individuals and the people who love them. 

Walk, run, skip, ride – do it YOUR way! Walk is an opportunity for autistics, families, and caregiver networks to gather as a community and support more than 32,000 Autistic individuals across Nova Scotia.  

Every dollar raised at Walk YOUR Way helps provide important opportunities for autistic individuals across their lifespan. From playgroups and social clubs to post-secondary coaching and employment support, taking part in Walk YOUR Way means that you are supporting the autistic community through every step of their journey.
