Mattel has unveiled its first autistic Barbie in the Fashionistas line, created with input from the U.S. Autistic Self Advocacy Network to reflect some autistic experiences through design features like side-gazing eyes, bendable joints for stimming, noise-canceling headphones, a communication tablet and sensory-friendly clothing. The doll aims to boost inclusivity and help children see themselves in play.

ID: A smiling young child sits beside a Barbie doll displayed on a table. The doll wears a purple striped dress, pink headphones. Text on the image reads “First autistic Barbie launched.”

We have made an easy-read Quality Supports for Children booklet, to help you understand in simple terms what providers should and must not do when providing care to your children.

Under the new Aged Care Act, older people have the right to make their own decisions.

If you want or need help making aged care decisions, you can choose someone you trust as your registered supporter.

Registered supporters are there to help you make and communicate your own decisions about your aged care services and needs. You can have more than one registered supporter.

Not all older people will want or need a registered supporter, and having one does not stop you from doing things on your own.

Sometimes our thoughts can feel like a tangled mess. But sharing them with someone, bit by bit, can help loosen the knots 💛

Many Autistic people experience challenges that aren’t always seen. 🌻

For some, autism may come with sensory sensitivities, social or communication differences, or executive functioning challenges that others don’t notice.

What can you do? Listen, believe, and make space for all experiences, visible or not. A little understanding and kindness can go a long way in making everyone feel seen and supported.

Keep an eye out for the sunflower 🌻badges, wristbands or lanyards. These help people share that they have a disability or condition that may not be immediately apparent.

It’s Invisible Disabilities Week (19–25 October)! 🌻

Around 80–85% of people with a disability have one that isn’t visible. These include neurological, cognitive, sensory, mental health, and chronic conditions that aren’t always immediately apparent.

Not all disabilities are visible — but a little understanding and kindness can go a long way in making everyone feel seen and supported.

The signs that someone is doing it tough might not be obvious. Connection and kindness can help them feel less alone.

We love this from Vex King 💛
