Cineplex offers a unique program for families affected by autism, and it could be coming to Vancouver Island.
Sensory Friendly Screenings offer new premiere movies in a lights up, sound down environment for individuals with autism.
Janet Anderson of Autism Speaks Canada explains the gist of the program.

There’s currently no theatres on Vancouver Island running the program, but Anderson is optimistic that there will be soon with Cineplex ramping up distribution and more theatres across the country implementing the service.
