ACT for Autism Australia are seeking to join a consortium with other service providers and like-minded not-for-profit organisations operating in Western Australia. Our aim is to continue supporting children under 9 years old through the Thriving Kids program. Please get in touch by 30 September so that we can work on a support program to help families and individuals in need.

Support workers

Home and community support for autistic individuals of all ages, seven days a week, matched to the person and their goals.

Our support workers spend time with autistic individuals at home, at the park, at the shops, at TAFE or at work — wherever the goals in the person's plan point. We support children, teenagers and adults. Every worker completes ongoing autism-specific training and starts with familiarisation shifts, so nobody meets a stranger on day one.

Support is built around the person, not a programme we hand out. That might be building independence in daily routines, getting to an appointment without it derailing the week, joining a community group, or simply having someone reliable to be out in the world with.

We work across the Perth metropolitan area between 6am and 8pm, seven days a week, for NDIS-funded and privately funded clients. Our therapy and capacity building supports are for neurodivergent children aged 9 and under, but support work has no upper age limit — and we accept referrals for individuals over 9 with complex needs, reviewed case by case.
