Showing kindness toward those who are different and embracing our imperfections as proof of our humanness is the remedy for fear

How we can help
Ashton’s Place supports children with autism. The foundation does this by: funding research into Evidence based Early Intervention, funding for the development of Autism Connect Early (ACE) programme, an evidence based Early Intervention Programme based on gradual and meaningful inclusion, and support and funding for professionals that guide programme implementation and train staff.
Our hope is that we can provide resources to parents and caregivers so they find the strength they need to be an enabler for their child.
We hope to be a place where parents can turn to for assistance in order to create the best place for their child.
Support for families
Our community here on the Gold Coast needs support and access to funds to ensure families can provide the best resources and early intervention services for their children diagnosed with an Autism Spectrum Disorder. Ashton’s Place is a foundation that will help support these local families and offer funding for further research which is needed. It requires a combined effort, and needs government, community, and business involvement at all levels to achieve our goals.
Our goal was to set up a foundation and charity that could help disadvantaged families choose a pathway of intervention that suited them and their child without financial burden and stress. If you are needing help, please reach out to us.
How you can help
We need your support too. Ashton’s Place was created to ease the burden on parents and caregivers of children with an ASD diagnosis, and to help these children find their place in this world.
However, we wouldn’t be able to do what we do without support from people like you. No matter how big or small, any help you can give us truly makes a difference in the lives of the children and families in our local ASD community.
