Supporting autistic people and their families
How we do itWe are an independent, not-for-profit organisation supporting autistic people and their families.
We offer a wide range of services for autistic people and their families. Based in Mansfield, we offer a statewide service to the whole of Victoria.
We have recently moved to our new facility and are thrilled to be providing supports and services from our 100 acre therapeutic care farm. Our new property has a new school building, retreat cabins, skill building stay houses, a meeting hut, a multipurpose activity centre and office space, and a perimeter walking track.
In addition to our Mansfield-based services, we recognise the importance of working within the family home and provide an in-home service throughout Victoria to join in the lives of our families to build the skills of autistic people and the capacity of their whole family.
