Children connect and find their tribe at AAA
ALL About Autism (AAA) runs small-group programs focused on real-life skills – emotional regulation, flexible thinking, social interactions, and executive functioning. Each group has only four children, allowing them to find their tribe in a calm, welcoming environment. We’re not a school and not therapy – something in between, and something truly special. We’re autism-specific, neuro-affirming, and strengths-based. AAA is all about connection.
For the past ten years on the Sunshine Coast, we’ve created a space where neurodivergent children are seen, heard, and valued. We started in 2015 in the CWA hall and have grown into a one-of-a-kind service (I think we are the only one of its kind in SE QLD). We’ve supported over 200 children, many of whom stay for years. Our team has grown too, with a speech pathologist and counsellor joining our passionate, experienced staff.
Our space in the Old Bank building in Landsborough is intentionally non-clinical. Families often say AAA is the first place where their child is truly understood. That’s what we’re proudest of: the sense of belonging, the confidence our kids build, and the relief families feel when they find us.
The journey hasn’t been without challenges. As a registered NDIS provider, we face constant policy shifts and funding uncertainty. Like many small services, it’s tough, but we’re committed to supporting the autism community on the Coast. Looking ahead, we dream of a purpose-built centre. But for now, we are super grateful to our families, our team, and our community.
