COMPANY PROFILE


Founded in 2004, Jake's House is a Provincially and Federally funded Canadian charity with a mission to provide meaningful support to families living with autism across the country.

Recognizing that more than any other single issue, families dealing with autism need a community, Jake's House is committed to growing a strong network of people who understand and care - a family, determined to provide tangible solutions at every stage of life.


In addition to growing a caring, committed community, Jake's House offers a continuum of structured services to provide practical help today and lasting hope for tomorrow.

Through four strategic offerings - social events for the whole family; mentoring programs for youth; employment opportunities for young adults; and housing for the aging population - Jake's House supports individuals on the spectrum throughout their entire lifespans.


Through these events and services, as well as other strategic initiatives, Jake's House strives to empower individuals with autism; offer their caregivers support and respite; raise awareness; share resources; and build a caring community.

Jake's House is dedicated to delivering assistance to those who need it right now, while also determined to establish a support system for future generations.
