Autism resources

Autism is a form of neurodiversity – a different way of thinking, behaving, learning and interacting with others. These resources provide information for families, educators and students to support young people who may or may not have an autism diagnosis during their schooling.

'Neurodiversity is about celebrating and embracing difference and diversity across humankind, and looking at how we can support neurodiversity across all contexts.'

— Dr Beth Saggers, Professor, School of Early Childhood and Inclusive Education, Queensland University of Technology

Autistic artist Freya Pinney created this image, titled 'Interconnections'. The painting explores how it feels to be supported and to offer support, representing the interconnections between being heard, seen, accepted and developing understanding.
