Respect |
Diversity | Autism
Autism STEP Australia is dedicated to spreading autism, neurodiverse awareness and acceptance. Everyone deserves to be seen and spoken to respectfully, and we aim to adjust expectations not only for the individuals with autism but for critical members of our local community as well. From police, paramedics, firefighters and first-response personnel to teachers, carers, employers, and staff. The worlds of the neurotypical and neurodiverse are interconnected, and we at Autism STEP think it's time we all acknowledged that through proper knowledge and training.
