Autism

Being a parent/carer of an autistic child or young person brings unique joys and challenges

Autistic people have a particular brain type/ neurology that influences how they process sensory information, how they think, move, and communicate.

At PSC we provide parents and carers with knowledge and strategies that enable you to support your autistic child/young person pre and post assessment. Click play to watch Amazing Things Happen’s video about autism.
