Are you seeking an autism diagnosis?
If you, your child, or someone you know is displaying some of the characteristics associated with autism, an autism assessment by the Autism SA Diagnostic Team can be conducted to help answer whether the individual is autistic or not.
Although you can be referred to Autism SA by a GP or an allied health professional, it is also possible to make a self-referral, i.e., to arrange an assessment yourself directly with Autism SA.
You can begin the process of making a self-referral by calling the Autism SA Infoline on 1300 288 47, and we will send or email you a referral form.
Do you already have an autism diagnosis?
If you, your child or someone in your care has received a new diagnosis for autism, the Autism SA Community Advisory Team is here to assist you in navigating the most relevant pathway.
Once you, your child or someone in your care has received a formal diagnosis of autism from the Diagnostic Team at Autism SA, you can be contacted by the Community Advisory Team.
You can also contact our team if you have received a diagnosis from another diagnostic assessment service provider and would now like to enquire about our supports, services and programs.
Do you need help with the NDIS?
Our Community Advisory Team provides support and guidance services for individuals on the autism spectrum and their families to apply for and use NDIS funding to access relevant and desired therapies, supports, programs and other services
As well as assisting and guiding autistic individuals and their families through the process of applying to become NDIS participants, once an NDIS Plan has been accepted and approved, we can provide advice and guidance on selecting relevant and desired therapies, supports, programs and other services.
