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

Save the Date: June 7, 2025

Join us on June 7th for Walk YOUR Way 2025! Together 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.

 

​Stay tuned for additional details regarding when Registration Opens for Walk 2025. We hope to see you there!
