Ashton's Place Immersive Learners – Tarneit VIC
Ashton’s Place Limited is a charitable foundation that supports autistic children aged between 3 and 6 years old. The Autism Connect Early (ACE) Programme operates across five early childhood centres, providing early childhood support for children and their families.
The programme aims to promote skill development and meaningful participation within the early childhood setting through naturalistic, relationship-based supports. We aim to meet children where they are at; understand the reasons behind behaviour; provide individualised regulation and communication supports; build social connection and relationships; and support children to achieve their individualised goals.
