Be Part of the Conversation! Participate in our in-person Francophone Town Halls.
Autism Alliance of Canada is pleased to announce its third in-person Francophone Town Hall!
The third in-person Francophone Town Hall will take place in Edmonton, Alberta on Friday, February 6, 2026. This event is part of our 2025–2026 Francophone and Francophile Town Hall series, which includes both online and in-person engagements.
All are welcome! Francophones, francophiles, multilingual participants.
Our goal is to bring about an autism collective voice in Francophones and Francophiles. This community-centred Francophone Town Hall will be facilitated using World Café-style conversations and will feature key local champions to inspire in-depth round table discussions. Participants will rotate among small groups, exchanging ideas on the five priority areas of Canada’s Autism Strategy in addition to identifying and examining priorities that are unique to their region. The in-person Francophone Town Hall will provide the opportunity to:
- Identify and discuss priorities that are unique to the region
- Connect and network in French
- Discover diverse perspectives
- Strengthen capacity in Francophone Autism communities
- Build common ground to bring about a Francophone collective voice
All discussions will be centred on the Francophone priorities that are relevant and important to the region. Discussions will be facilitated and documented to capture collective insight, connect diverse perspectives, and spark collaboration to drive action at both the provincial and community levels.
*All World Café round-table discussions will be in French.
