OAP and Funding
Understand your options before starting services
Funding questions are an important part of planning care. We can discuss the proposed services and provide a written fee estimate so you can consider your budget before committing.
Ontario Autism Program
The Ontario Autism Program offers different services and funding streams for eligible children and youth. Core clinical services funding can be used for eligible supports under the applicable program guidelines, including applied behaviour analysis when provider qualification requirements are met.
Check your funding terms
Families should confirm their funding terms and any eligibility questions with AccessOAP or the relevant funding administrator before purchasing services.
Eligibility can vary
Core clinical services funding may cover eligible supports under the applicable guidelines, including ABA when provider qualification requirements are met.
