Community Feature - QuickStart - Early Intervention for Autism


At Village Green Dental Care, we are dedicated to enriching the communities where we live, work and do business. We try to help those in need by supporting numerous nonprofit organizations through financial donations, product donations, and organizational support. 
This month we would like to feature QuickStart.

Village Green Dental Care patient Suzanne Jacobson is the founder of QuickStart.
QuickStart’s mission is to advocate and to fundraise for early intervention for children at risk of or with autism.
QuickStart, in partnership with the Ottawa Children's Treatment Centre (OCTC), provides free services for children, six and under, prior to a diagnosis.
QuickStart is a non-profit organization where one hundred percent of every donation goes to support the clinic.

Village Green Dental Care is a proud supporter of QuickStart.

How Can You Help?

QuickStart is helping to fund services for children and families when the parent first becomes concerned about their child, prior to a diagnosis. This is critical since it can take up to a year for diagnosis. No one else provides this service in the Ottawa area.

Please let your family, friends and colleagues know what QuickStart is doing.

If you would like to hold a fundraiser for QuickStart please contact Suzanne Jacobson at suzanne@quickstartautism.ca or call 613-791-3757.
