We have actively supported the autism community in Australia. Our team has provided free training and consultation to a parent seeking resources for her adult son with autism. In support of this parent, we developed a proposal to offer select families and professionals in the local community access to the training required to become Official Program Providers of the Ernie Els #GameON Autism Golf program and our telehealth evidence-based parent training services.
To increase access to golf for individuals with autism worldwide, we trained a seasoned physical education teacher and golf instructor with a vested interest in autism to become an Official Program Provider of the Ernie Els #GameON Autism Golf program.
We also collaborated with the founder of the HELPA app, a digital health platform connecting families and caregivers of children with autism and other special needs. We tested and provided invaluable feedback on the app’s features and functionality specific to autism, which contributed to its successful launch.
