Being a teenager with autism is a journey filled with both unique challenges and remarkable strengths. It brings with it a beautiful world of imagination, creativity and a deep capacity for focus and passion. Embracing your traits and sharing who you are with likeminded individuals in supportive communities can lead to greater self-acceptance and empowerment. You are not defined by your challenges, but rather by the incredible potential within you to make a difference and shine brightly in your own way.
Different Journeys would like to acknowledge the traditional owners of the different lands on which we meet today. We respect all Aboriginal Elders past and present We aim to collaborate with our Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander friends in the autistic community to connect, empower and support each other and exchange isolation, prejudice and ignorance with connections, hope and community. We acknowledge that the connection to autism and lived experience is our common ground. We acknowledge, respect and maintain that our custodians have cultivated these lands and we continue to learn together.
