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.

It was a very busy day for our CEO @NicRogerson yesterday, responding to all of the requests for comment on the newly launched #NationalAutismStrategy. Whilst Autism Awareness Australia welcomes the strategy, it is also our responsibility to call out where it falls short. (1/2)

well said @NicRogerson raising very important issues about #nationalautismstrategy including education and federal "throwing the ball" states are not ready to catch. youtube.com/watch?v=g2dDj9sX…
Vale Jane Hansen. A tireless journo, who I was always happy to join in the fight against anti-vaxxers. Man, that woman had some tales! We had a lot of laughs about some very silly people. May her memory be a blessing to her most beloved son. @janehansen2000
AND in memory of Jane, for those who need to be reminded, VACCINES DO NOT CAUSE AUTISM. Thank you, Jane, for your years of care and interest in our community. @AutismAwareAus
Jack and I are at Sydney’s Town Hall tonight to listen to @ryanholiday. Really wish 1999 Nicole knew this was in our future. My kid and his constant curiosity….oh, and genetics. @AutismAwareAus

#Autistic students and students with other #disabilities are more likely to be excluded from their school community, according to new research. Not only does this have long-lasting impacts on their well-being, it takes a toll on their families. @abcnews buff.ly/3Vlf116
Michael is a delight, and Emily is a huge fan. Well done, @ABCTV, for showing this delightful program.
In case you missed it, Michael Theo is back on our TV screens, this time in his acting debut! Learn more about his experience filming 'Austin,' his travels in the UK and what he hopes audiences will gain from watching his latest series.

At Parliament today to listen to debate in the chamber on the new NDIS legislation and always great to chat with the wonderful @SenatorJordon We need to get this right, so extending the inquiry so we fully understand the legislation is critical. Don’t go fast and break things.
I look forward to appearing at today’s Senate Committee hearing. In the meantime, file this under your ‘who didn’t see this coming’ tab! NDIS: States urge Bill Shorten to put the brakes on changes smh.com.au/politics/federal/…

A radio show?
What do Roy and @hg_nelson have that we don’t??? A straight to the heart discussion of what’s hard, what needs to get done..@AutismAwareAus @Adam_Guastella @Mark_Butler_MP @billshortenmp @BrainMind_Usyd
I am quite sure @ian_hickie and I should never be on a podcast together again! Truth bombs and some minor swearing. Views are certainly my own. Thanks to @Jamesologhlin for herding the cats. @AutismAwareAus
Will the Draft National Autism Strategy help those with autism? Or is it just another nice-sounding govt document that will go nowhere? How can govts better assist those with autism? @NicRogerson CEO of @AutismAwareAus joins @ian_hickie and me. New pod

Please commit to ensuring that none of us are forced to live in a group home @billshortenmp #auspol
Uphold our human rights and reject the appalling recommendation of the #NDIS Review to force people with 24/7 support needs into congregate care.

This is a really important issue - for all those people and families affected and for those who deliver clinical (health) social and educational support services @Adam_Guastella @AutismAwareAus @headspace_aus @billshortenmp @BrainMind_Usyd
