Description
iTunes Summary

When Carrie Hart got the call that her son Lucas was accepted into the Little Tots program, she didn’t know what to do.

“I remember that day. I was with my friend at The Forestry Farm. I was in the car and I think I started crying and then I probably did laps in my car because I was so excited. It was an instant sense of relief.”

Relief because her son was about to get the help he needed to overcome some pretty big challenges.

Lucas was diagnosed with autism shortly after turning two. Hart knew he needed a type of therapy that would allow him to catch up on the speech and social skills he was struggling to develop.

She wanted her son in the Little Tots program because of its sterling reputation.

Little Tots is an early intensive intervention program for children between 18 and 48 months. It is run by Autism Services of Saskatoon and provides one-on-one therapy for autistic children. It is also the only program of its kind in Saskatchewan.

This episode explores the Little Tots program through Lucas. Eric interviews Carrie and Desirae Boutin. She is the interim director of Little Tots.

It takes a lot of people pulling in the same direction to help an autistic child. Carrie and Desirae are wonderful examples of this.

I hope you enjoy this episode as much as I did creating it. Thank you for listening and subscribing to the podcast.

Cheers...Eric
