Waiting times for autism or ADHD assessments are a symptom of the strain our health systems are under.
Supporting your child doesn’t need to be put on hold while you wait for an assessment, write @Spillarah (@telethonkids) + @AJOWhitehouse (@uwanews).

A new book by Telethon Kids researchers is bringing the untold stories of kids with developmental coordination disorder (DCD) - like 12-year-old Kai - to life. bit.ly/2ZO7hK8

The term 'high functioning autism' is based on an IQ assessment, rather than a functional assessment. Telethon Kids researcher Dr Gail Alvares explains why the term is misleading and can cause disadvantage, arguing that it should be scrapped. bit.ly/31KhFAH
We did a thing!!!! So excited to have had this opportunity to illustrate such a special children’s book. Feels surreal to actually hold the finished outcome. Huge thanks to @mellicTKI for trusting me with the artwork. It’s been such a pleasure 😄
So incredibly pleased to announce the launch of our new children's book 'Sometimes I Find It Hard To Move My Body'. The book brings to life the voices of several children with DCD. An honour to work with @Spillarah, @IncDcd and @uwapublishing
