March 20th was World Storytelling Day, and we thought - why not tell our story?💙

Courtesy of the Kinsmen Club of Calgary, we are able to share some of our history, as well as Liliana's journey with CanLearn.

A huge thank you to the Kinsmen for putting together this video and for continuing to support CanLearn!

Autism Acceptance Month: Beyond Awareness

To respect both person-first and identity-first perspectives, we have used both "autistic person" and "person with autism".

Since April is traditionally considered autism "awareness" month, the CanLearn community would like to continue the conversation to reflect on the idea that autism "acceptance" spans more than one month and is a continual process.

Study: Adult ADHD and Depression, Anxiety Strongly Linked

The link between mental health and ADHD is so strong - why aren't we paying attention? A new U.K. study underscores the importance of screening for ADHD comorbidities.

Did you know:

At CanLearn, we use best practices to screen for comorbidities when conducting psychoeducational assessments.

You can find out more about psychoeducational assessments at CanLearn here.
