Attendees at a 2008 Autism Ontario conference (N = 175) responded to a survey designed by the organization and rated each of these aspects for 11 specific services. Data analyses revealed a disparity in participants’ views of service availability among respondents from the Central region, and differences in views of accessibility and effectiveness among those in Southern Ontario. Possible explanations for these trends are discussed.enReprinted with permission from the Journal on Developmental Disabilities, 2010, vol. 16, no. 01, pages 34-39.CC0 1.0 UniversalautismadultsadolescentsservicesIntellectual disabilitiesdevelopmental disabilitiesArticle
