Music

Music lessons are directed by the Sarah McLachlan School of Music and supported by Canucks Autism Network staff.

• Each Children’s Class (7-12yrs) session consists of 45 minute lessons, once per week, for multiple weeks.
• Each lesson consists of 8-10 participants who may be split into smaller groups.
• Participants are provided with a high ratio of support (1:1 or higher, if needed).

The Sarah McLachlan School of Music provides a music instructor and assistant to lead each class. Participants will also be supported by CAN support workers and volunteers provided.

At Canucks Autism Network, we strive to meet the needs of each participant through parent collaboration.

Please do not hesitate to speak with on-site staff about support strategies that work for your child (e.g., visual schedules, first-then boards, token systems, social stories, etc.).

Please email [email protected] with any questions or concerns.
