Autism New Zealand

Nestled in the sun-kissed heart of Gisborne, Autism New Zealand stands as a beacon of hope and understanding for individuals and families navigating the unique challenges of autism. Since our inception over two decades ago, we've been steadfastly committed to fostering an inclusive community that supports, educates, and advocates for those touched by autism. Our journey began with a simple yet profound belief: that every individual, regardless of their neurological difference, deserves the opportunity to thrive. Over the years, we've grown from a small group of passionate parents into a nationwide network of professionals, families, and friends dedicated to making a meaningful impact on the lives of those with autism. At Autism New Zealand Gisborne, we pride ourselves on being more than just a service provider. We are a community where everyone feels seen, heard, and valued. Our mission is to provide accessible information, support, and advocacy that empowers individuals on the autism spectrum to live their best lives. Our online platform serves as an invaluable resource for families seeking guidance, understanding, and connection. Here, you'll find a wealth of articles, videos, and resources tailored to meet the diverse needs of our community. From practical tips for daily living to insights into the latest research, our digital space is designed to offer support at your fingertips. But we believe that true change happens when we come together. That's why our physical location in Gisborne serves as a welcoming hub for connection and collaboration. Here, you'll find workshops, social events, and networking opportunities that bring our community closer together. We're not just a service provider; we're a family, united by shared experiences and a collective determination to create a brighter future for those with autism.
