Conference Charity

 


Autism is a lifelong development disorder that affects a person's behaviour, communication, socialising skills and sensory issues.

It is estimated that 1 in 100 people have an Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and the incidence appears to be rising worldwide - that's an estimated 40,000 New Zealanders!  Surveys have shown that parents of children with autism suffer the highest stress levels of any condition including terminal illness.  It occurs in all racial, ethnic, and social groups and is four times more likely to strike boys than girls.

Autism NZ's mission is to improve the quality of life for people with autism, Asperger syndrome, those with associated conditions, their family/whanau and those who support them.

Whilst we will be collecting donations at conference to our selected charity, we also offer the opportunity to donate to Autism New Zealand at the time of registering for conference - $10 or a sum specified.  If you opt to make a donation at this stage, please note you will be debited separately for this by Autism New Zealand and they will send you a receipt in due course.
