It’s Autism Understanding Day today, thank you to Hayden and the Win News Team for dropping by to highlight the lived experiences and voices of Autistic people and find out more about our popular social skills programs - overseen by our program psychologist (and evidence based!)

If you’re considering trying us out, our holiday program information will be available soon for our Kids and Teens age groups - a good way to see if it’s the right fit before signing up for the school term.

Featured here is our very popular young adults program. Well done to Willow and Daniel for speaking so articulately and honestly - you did such a great job!

Our recent Knights of the Shed school holiday program focused on understanding the Convention on the Rights of the Child through a local Hobart lens.
The core of the program wasn’t about creation, but about conversation. Important discussions took place between participants and our therapy assistants related to the rights, safety, and support available to them.
Understanding our rights and available community support is essential. We specifically highlighted the roles of key Hobart services in upholding these rights:
• Migrant Resource Centre Tasmania (MRC)
• Tasmanian Aboriginal Centre (TAC)
• Working It Out (WIO)
• Association for Children with Disability Tasmania (ACD Tas)
What does it mean to understand our rights and what’s available to us? It means knowing where to turn when support is needed and feeling empowered to be an active part of the community.
While the primary activity was conversation, participants still engaged in focused activities like miniature figure painting and Zentangle-inspired art as tools for connection and discussion.
Disclaimer: Many of the art works featured here are “work in progress” and participants were very kind and tolerant of having them snapped before being “ready” or “finished”.
