💙 Autism Awareness Day
Building Understanding, Acceptance, and Support in Our Community.
Today is Autism Awareness Day — an opportunity to learn, reflect, and support autistic people in our community. Greater understanding leads to greater inclusion, and even small actions can make a meaningful difference.
📊 Key Facts About Autism in Australia
🧩Autism is diagnosed more often in males than females.
🧩As of 2022, around 290,900 Australians are autistic, representing 1.1% of the population.
Autism is part of the lives of many families, friends, colleagues, and neighbours. Awareness helps us create environments where autistic people feel safe, respected, and understood.
We hope this helps, from the CLM Team 🧩
