I am writing to you on behalf of the board of trustees from the Simcoe County District School board (SCDSB) to express our concerns with respect to recent changes to the Ontario Autism Program (OAP) and the direct and challenging impacts these changes will have on all the students in our board, especially those with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD).
