Shining Through For Children
About us
Our Story:
Shining Through was founded in 1999 by 5 families, who recognized a demand for programs and services for children with Autism. Struggling to find the right care and education for their own children and having a goal of creating a centre of world-class quality - the Woodbridge campus was established. They began hiring highly specialized professionals to create one-on-one programs using the ABA intervention model, monitor progress, advise families, and champion the progression of all constructive interventions that would facilitate the education, growth, and development of their children. By 2008, the centre was so successful that it reached capacity, and another campus was urgently needed. That’s when Beecroft was born. Both campuses are in beautiful century homes; the story of the Dempsey Store (built by Joseph Sheppard II) is particularly fascinating. The newest addition to STC was a school-based program in partnership with Streetsville Academy where they focus on integration into regular classrooms. As for the 5 founding families - they are all still very much involved and committed to the mission of this centre.

Manjit D. asked:New to this wonderful group and could use recommendations of anyone who has had positive experiences with IBI/ABA providers in York Region. I got an unexpected call from Kinark saying funding is now available for our son or we can wait for DSO. From everything I've read here, I'd like to try DFO but need help to find a good agency.

Joy A. asked:Can anyone in East York please recommend private ABA therapists in the area? I'd be very grateful for your referrals! My soon qualifies for funding, but there are long waiting lists for ABA with all the big organizations like Geneva Centre. We live at Woodbine & Danforth.Stephanie A. replied:Shining through centre https://www.facebook.com/745835388767708 The Shining Through Centre for Children with Autism
