**By registering for the Centre for Autism Services Alberta’s Summer Camp, you acknowledge and agree to the following terms:

  • The pricing for this year’s camp will remain the same as last year. However, at the time of registration, please note that we are currently unsure of how FSCD (Family Support for Children with Disabilities) will be funding the camp. Based on previous years, we are assuming the use of respite hours for funding.
  • In the event that the FSCD funding model changes, and the amount covered by FSCD is less than expected, you agree to pay any difference in cost between the assumed funding and the actual amount required for your child’s participation in the camp.
  • By completing the registration, you are acknowledging that you understand and accept these terms, and you agree to pay any additional charges if the funding situation changes.

 

Please feel free to reach out with any questions or concerns regarding the funding process or pricing.

Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.
