Synesthesia

Synesthesia is a condition in which multiple senses are perceived simultaniously, for example experiencing taste upon hearing words (Lexical–gustatory synesthesia). There are a myriad of different forms of synesthesia, which can be classified in two categories:
• Projective synesthesia: seeing actual colors, forms, or shapes when stimulated
• Associative synesthesia: feeling very strong and involuntary connections between the stimulus and the sense that it triggers

Land acknowledgement

Embrace Autism recognizes and acknowledges the traditional lands of the Indigenous peoples across Ontario. From the lands of the Anishinaabe to the Attawandaron and Haudenosaunee, these lands surrounding the Great Lakes are steeped in First Nations history.

We are in solidarity with Indigenous brothers and sisters to honour and respect Mother Earth. We acknowledge and give gratitude for the wisdom of the Grandfathers and the four winds that carry the spirits of our ancestors that walked this land before us.

Embrace Autism is located on the Treaty Lands and Territory of the Mississaugas of the Credit. We acknowledge and thank the Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation—the Treaty holders—for being stewards of this traditional territory.
