OUR SOCIAL ENTERPRISE INITIATIVES
Further than that, we teach them the way to be independent and self sufficient but to be part of a community and to care about others. Autistic people care, many just can't show that emotion. But actions speak louder than words. Our higher functioning autistic adults earn independent livings through our initiatives and training. They all proudly support those less fortunate. 50% of their revenue is used to fund AAC Devices and other therapies that help non verbal and 'severely' affected autistic people who need round-the-clock care.
Our initiatives are structured to provide autistic adults and young people with the tools to be independent, fulfilled and accepted.
We are mothers, fathers, brothers, sisters and grandparents of autistic people and we welcome all.
The time for action is now. In a fast-changing world, actions speak louder than words. We are securing the future for the present and future generations.
AAC DEVICES
Augmentative Alternative Communication devices are expensive but very effective for many children and young adults with communication issues. They are not readily available without lengthy funding applications and processes. We simply raise the money and give them to those who will benefit from them right now.
TRAINING AND EMPLOYMENT
This initiative saw us train autistic adults with employable skills ranging from website design, graphic design, IT and data entry to coding and AI. Many autistic people have an aptitude for this type of work but lack the opportunity to develop them and deploy them in the workplace. We aim to change that, leading by example and raising awareness with employers. Get involved. Together we can break down barriers and secure the future for our children and future generations.
LET'S DRIVE CHANGE
We're all volunteers, unpaid and do not claim expenses of any kind. You can join us or support us in a number of ways. We are doing this because we feel it's the only way to be sure of the future. We are not reliant on the government or any funding from external sources. We provide value in exchange for support. Read about our initiatives and services and if you'd like to be part of what we're doing, we welcome you with open arms.
We successfully trained and placed 12 autistic adults last year with innovative employers who have been nominated for awards this year... if you're an employer and want to know about the positive traits autistic people can have, especially from an employer's point of view.. reach out to one of the team to discuss.
Nobody at One Autism is paid at all... we are parents and family members of autistic people and we're trying to secure an uncertain future by breaking taboos and breaking down barriers to social integration and employment. We are leading by example... the only way we know how... if you or somebody you care about is affected by autism and wants to be a part of what we do, simply complete the form and get in touch.
We have a wide reach, it doesn't matter where in Ireland you may be.... we can and will help, support and welcome you and your loved ones.
