Living with Autism offers a supportive and informative six-week program designed specifically for parents and carers of autistic children. This engaging series provides a safe space to ask questions, share experiences, and learn different parenting approaches tailored to your family's needs.
Each session is facilitated by ParentZone experts who understand the challenges and joys of raising autistic children. You will gain valuable insights into autism, explore practical strategies for everyday parenting, and connect with other families facing similar journeys. The program encourages open discussion and mutual support to empower you as a parent or carer.
The program runs weekly on Thursdays from 10:00 to 12:00 over six weeks, starting on 6 August 2026 and concluding on 10 September 2026. Each session builds on the last, covering topics such as understanding autism, communication techniques, behaviour management, and self-care for carers. The sessions are free of charge and designed to be accessible and welcoming.
All sessions take place at the Epping Services Hub, located at 713 High Street, Epping, 3076. The venue is easily accessible by public transport and has parking facilities nearby. This community hub provides a comfortable environment conducive to learning and sharing.
This program is ideal for parents and carers seeking support and knowledge about autism. It is recommended to attend all six sessions to gain the full benefit of the program. Participants are encouraged to register early as spaces may be limited. The sessions are designed to be interactive, so come prepared to engage and ask questions.
