DEEPAK CHOPRA: Wednesday January 25th 7:30-9:30 pm
Children’s Autism Services of Edmonton’s Annual Conference has become the most important autism event of the year across Alberta, and perhaps Western Canada. But the 2017 conference marks a new high. We are pleased to announce that our evening keynote speaker will be Deepak Chopra, internationally renowned author of over 80 books and a revolutionary thinker on integrative medicine and personal transformation.
Having a child with autism means giving 110% to that child, often at the expense of personal well-being and quality of life – families and caregivers need strategies to ensure we can put on our oxygen masks first.

CAROL GRAY: Thursday January 26th and Friday January 27th
Carol Gray is a Consultant to Children, Adolescents, and Adults with Autism, providing support via workshops and presentations, information, referral, resources, and direct services for individuals with autism, their families, and professionals who work on their behalf. She is an internationally sought-after keynote and seminar speaker, and has completed over 1,000 presentations.
Carol is best known for the development of Social Stories, a well-respected evidence-based practice used worldwide with people with autism of all ages. Carol was the first teacher for students with autism at Jenison Public Schools in Jenison, Michigan, employed there from 1977 through 2004. In 1989, Carol began writing stories for her students to share information with them that they seemed to be missing, information that so many of us take for granted. Many of the stories resulted in immediate and marked improvement in her students’ responses to daily events and interactions.
And much much more!!!
