Recruiter

The Transforming Autism Project is a brand-new charity focusing on very early intervention for autistic children. Our goal is to truly transform lives through:

• Family services in parent groups, in the home and online,
• A unique Autism Parenting Hub of comprehensive guidance, support & community
• And ultimately, through our life-changing Mifne Treatment Centre (details here)

We also challenge conventional perceptions of autism and offer our own radical and empowering perspective. This can be seen in our TED talk, which has now been viewed by 100,000 people and received great acclaim from the autistic community.

What is distinctive about our approach is that it focuses of facilitating a strong relationship between child and parents, based on understanding and trust, as a primary means of reducing anxiety and giving the child a real feeling of being looked after, so that they can focus more of their energies on realising their potential, rather than managing anxiety.

We are currently at a very early stage in our development and are trying to raise the money to launch our first phase of family services over the coming months. To that end, we are looking to create a team of capable and dedicated volunteers to ensure our success.
