Event description

Introductory Life Skills

Our Introductory Life Skills program has been designed by an experienced Occupational Therapist, Kate Horstmann, specifically for young autistic people looking to become more self-sufficient in the family home, preparing to move out or making improvements for those already living on their own. This program teaches skills such as problem solving, goal setting and self-reflection applied across practical areas such as self-care, domestic chores, scheduling or time management, budgeting, and community access.

Are you aged between 17 and 25 years?

Want to be more independent?

Do you need assistance with strategies to:
  • Increase your motivation?
  • Improve your organisation skills?
  • Better manage your emotions?

The transition into adulthood can be challenging and often stressful for young autistic adults.

In conjunction with an experienced Occupational Therapist, we’ve developed a program to guide and support you as you navigate your way to independence.

This program aims to support you to learn the skills required for independent living, including becoming more self-sufficient in the family home, preparing to move out or making improvements for those already living on their own.

This introductory program focuses on teaching essential foundation skills such as self-reflection, problem-solving and goal-setting applied across a range of areas including self-care, domestic chores, scheduling, budgeting and community access.

Emphasis is placed on addressing some of the barriers experienced by people living with autism including motivation, organisation and emotional regulation.

This project has been made possible via the Department of Social Services Information, Linkages and Capacity Building (ILC) Grant Round 2019.
