Jamie was diagnosed at 3 years of age and has had a long association with Autism SA. Check out his story.
This year marks our 60th anniversary of service to the South Australian community. Since its beginnings, Autism SA has been single-minded in its focus on supporting the autism community and has been at the forefront of service development and advocacy.
Being a special milestone, this April during Autism Month our fundraisers are doing the 60 a day for Autism SA challenge, including Jamie.
Jamie has been a volunteer at Autism SA for 10 years and he is the face of 60 a day for Autism SA. Thanks Jamie for all that you do for Autism SA and the Autistic community!
