Autistic people are part of every culture and community around the world. In some communities and languages, there may not be an understanding or direct term for autism or autistic person. We consult directly with community to use respectful language. We regularly review language to ensure it reflects current community understanding.
On this page you will find an animation that helps explain sensory processing, and an information sheet about autism.
This animation strengthens knowledge and understanding of sensory processing for First Nations families and individuals who are caring for neurodivergent people.
Autistic people in our community have a variety of needs to support their way of learning and developing. Some autistic people need more support than others.
