Our mission

Healthier kids.
Stronger families.

We believe that every child living with ASD or other special needs deserves access to the programs, support, and community that help them thrive β€” and that when children do well, the whole family does too.

Families speak

What families say

"It was so fun to look around on the rink and realize how far so many of the kids have come… so many smiles β€” on the faces of both the kids and the parents."

Skating Program Parent

"Our son was excited to be at his favourite park with all his friends β€” something we would not have been able to make possible on our own."

Amanda & Chris

"Our children could never have experienced playing hockey or baseball without this program. We are forever grateful."

Program Family

"As parents of three children, ongoing costs are always a concern. Without Rainbows of Joy, quality therapy services simply would not be possible for our family."
