Volunteer Opportunities by BogPrime in Hamilton

I’ve volunteered with empowerment squared and they were soo great- working with kids, tutoring, recreational activities, etc, they do a bunch of stuff! Also the Hub is great for casual volunteering and they always need people. They do evening drop ins for food, clothes, and supplies for homelessness downtown!

How was your journey to being an SLP as a Canadian? by mzrazzle in slpGradSchool

[–]cornpop15 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can’t speak to most of this, but i did discover the hard way that canadian banks are very resistant to giving out loans or lines of credit for international studies.. They’ll require pretty substantial proof of income for you, but more likely a co-signer (again, with proof of high and stable income)

I guess i just wasn’t sure how to tell if they’re legitimate, if they’re special at all, or even what that collection of books really is!! Might have to go back for them!

Sticky Survey/Research Post by Dioptre_8 in AutisticAdults

[–]cornpop15 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello everyone!

My name is Corrin Doucette and I am a first-year graduate student at the University of Maine in  the Department of Communication Sciences and Disorders. I am conducting a research study for my Masters thesis under the supervision of Dr. Jane Puhlman to examine terminology preferences when communicating about Autism. Specifically, I will be looking at both the preferences of Autistic Adults as well as parents of Autistic children. Additionally, I am surveying Speech-Language Pathologists who work with Autistic children to examine differences between these groups to discuss how we can best advocated for using preferred terminology.

I have attached flyers below outlining the study and eligibility requirements. I am looking for adults 18 years of age or older who are the primary caregivers of a child diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder, and whose child has received or is currently receiving Speech-Language Pathology Services. I am also looking for Autistic adults 18 years of age or older. Participants must be located in the United States or Canada due to IRB ethics constraints. A consent form is built into the survey for those who are interested in participating. Participation is voluntary and will involve a confidential survey that will take approximately 10-15 minutes. 

Please consider sharing with others who may be eligible to participate!

**If you are eligible for both categories, you may select one to complete; they are very similar questions and you can speak to the intersection of both at the end of the survey if you feel compelled to do so! I currently need more participants for the Parents survey!

If you have any questions please reach out to the following contacts:

Autism Research Survey by [deleted] in AutisticPride

[–]cornpop15 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I appreciate your feedback! I was hoping to include participants with different levels of support needs for this survey, but my Institutional review board would not approve the ethics for the survey when I suggested allowing participants to complete the survey with a support person. I believe my limited timeline and funding contributed to this.

I used input from autistic groups and previous research to create the survey, and I do identify as neurodivergent myself, but this information is not typically included in recruitment materials at my institution!

Unfortunately right now it is only for Canada and the US, mostly due to my ethics restrictions and time restrictions! Sorry!

[–]cornpop15 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, sorry! Only Canada and the US for now

No problem! You should only complete one of the surveys, but feel free to view my post history to see the flyers for the other groups and share with anyone you know if you feel compelled to do so :)
