HELPLINES AND ORGANISATIONS
There are around 4.3 million Australians who have a disability. Within the next five years, the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) will provide more than $22 billion in funding a year to an estimated 500,000 Australians who have permanent and significant disability. For many people, it will be the first time they receive the disability support they need.
BUSHkids is a non-Government, not for profit community organisation which offers a range of free allied health services to children and families living in rural Queensland.
Our clients are rural and remote children who are experiencing some behavioural, emotional, social and/or developmental difficulties.
Our goal is simple: to improve the lives of all Australian on the autism spectrum and the families who love them.
We empower parents and carers with quality information and resources. We provide targeted educational programs to families, professionals and the broader community. We support inclusion for people on the autism spectrum… and we have some fun along the way too.
We know that families are the best advocates for their children, and we are here to ensure they have access to the best quality information and supports to help them along the way.
