Why is Australia refusing to name a cohort that the rest of the world is already acting on? In this blog, Tim Pryde makes the case for why that needs to change and what real policy courage looks like. Read it here: buff.ly/oZ8FJte
It's pretty safe to say that Aussie families have been more than a little overwhelmed by all the Federal budget talk this week. Luckily, the very clever Team DSC folks have put together a top-notch, easy-to-understand analysis. Read or listen here buff.ly/aoUyIPW

The #NationalAutismParentCarerReport2025 is now live here - buff.ly/u4gaVqm We call on all levels of government and politicians from all political stripes to take these survey findings seriously. Families deserve nothing less. #Auspol #NDIS
We surveyed 1,200+ autism parents and carers from around Australia. What they told us? Brutal. Heartbreaking. Unignorable. The most confronting autism data in a decade drops 03.04.25. #WAAD25 #NDIS #NationalAutismParentCarerReport2025 #AusPol
Like many mums, Porscia Lam wanted to do her best for her son. She shares how the pathway to getting a diagnosis & finding the right support was challenging. However, it ultimately helped them discover the resources they needed for him to thrive. #autism buff.ly/4LOAMlj

Navigating dating and relationships can feel overwhelming, especially with all the unwritten social rules, mixed signals, and a whirlwind of emotions—not to mention the hormones! For #autistic adults and their families, it’s easy to feel lost in the uncertainty.
Growing research suggests there is a possible link between #autism and #CerebralPalsy. Understand how they can overlap and why there may be a link. buff.ly/4hlTU8C
#Hyperlexia is a learning #disability where children have excellent reading fluency but struggle to understand what they are actually reading. Understanding the signs of hyperlexia, particularly in #autistic children, can help families seek support. buff.ly/3YSVVm9
@CarersNSW has created a Young #Carer Hub with information & resources for young carers, their families and the professionals, teachers, service providers & educators who support them. The hub is free & also contains links to further support across NSW. buff.ly/4hxJSRT

Siblings Australia is running a series of free workshops to support siblings of people with #disability to navigate family relationships & major life events. They cover important topics such as your rights and developing self-advocacy & self-care skills. buff.ly/3QdurCs
March is #CerebralPalsyAwarenessMonth, which is also an important month for the #autismCommunity. With around 7% of children with #CerebralPalsy also having #autism, understanding how the two can overlap is important for providing the best support: buff.ly/41ccZVa
Excursions, camps and other special school events can cause a lot of anxiety and distress for #autistic students. Discover practical strategies for supporting your child and working with their school to make these events as inclusive as possible. buff.ly/4jW8xRD
