Ontario Autism Charity Under Police Investigation for Grant Mismanagement

 

Premier Doug Ford and Jake's House co-founder David Bodanis pose on Nov. 25, 2018 at the charity's "Legend of Distinction Ceremony" honouring Toronto Police Supt. Ron Taverner.


Ontario Provincial Police have opened an investigation into Jake’s House for Autistic Children, a charity that has received substantial provincial funding over the years. The review focuses on how the organization handled government grants after concerns were raised by provincial officials about its financial practices and overall governance.

Jake’s House, known for providing programs and support to families affected by autism, had previously been funded through multiple provincial initiatives, including workforce‑related programs. Government ministries flagged ongoing issues with the charity’s financial oversight, prompting the province to halt funding and refer the matter to police.

The OPP’s anti‑rackets branch is now examining whether public funds were managed appropriately. The investigation remains active, and neither the charity nor provincial officials have publicly detailed the specific concerns under review.
