Have your say on further improvements to services | Disability Support Services That feedback has already led to changes – such as more consistent needs assessments, including carers' needs, and more choice and control for people with flexible funding.

Today we acknowledge a milestone: 20 years since Your Way | Kia Roha and Parent to Parent signed a partnership that brought the Altogether Autism service into being.

Two decades on, we're still here, proud to be trusted by autistic people and whānau to deliver information and advice that is authentic to autistic experience and informed by the latest research.

We invite you to celebrate with us over the coming weeks as we reflect on the journey, honour those whose stories and contributions have shaped and given life to our mahi, and look to the future.
