Aspect's approach describes the principles that guide how we provide high quality supports and services to Autistic participants, students and their families/carers.
Our solid foundation
Aspect's approach draws on our 55 years of expertise in supporting Autistic people of all ages and their families and carers.
Our approach is focused on the individual
We learn how each Autistic person experiences the world, using their strengths, interests and aspirations to shape individualised supports.
Our practices are guided by six principles
Our practices are underpinned by the latest evidence, guided by input from the individual and their support network, and are continuously adapted to meet each person's unique needs.
