The Pacific Autism Family Network (PAFN) is a center of excellence and a network of support for individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and their families in British Columbia and across Canada. They offer a wide range of programs and services to cater to the specific needs of individuals on the autism spectrum. One of their notable offerings is an innovative iOS app and web admin application that provides care teams with methods to collect, store, and monitor biometric and/or environmental data for those on the autism spectrum.

This allows for better understanding and personalized support for individuals with ASD. PAFN also organizes over 10 unique annual sensory inclusive events and maintains relationships with 24 different employers for in-person job shadows, creating opportunities for individuals with ASD to gain employment experience and develop skills. The core purpose of PAFN is to be a Knowledge Centre, bringing together state-of-the-art resources for research, information, learning, assessment, treatment, and support.

They also collaborate with local community partners to establish spoke centers located across the province, which have full access to the expertise and information services offered at the hub in Richmond. By enhancing resources available to families, PAFN aims to support individuals with ASD and related disorders throughout their lifespan, ensuring they have the necessary tools and services to thrive
