Get to know me!

Hello everyone! My name is Chloe, and this year I am excited to participate in the Run for Autism.

3 years ago, at the age of 19, I received a diagnoses of Autism Spectrum Disorder and ADHD. I have firsthand experience of the challenges faced while growing up undiagnosed, struggling through school, and feeling different from my peers in the way my mind operates.

Since my diagnosis, I have been fortunate to have access to amazing support that has made a significant difference in my life.
More than anything, this journey has provided me with the invaluable opportunity to understand myself on a much deeper level, allowing me to embrace my identity and navigate the world with greater confidence.

The funds that I'm hoping to raise could go towards:

* Helping Autistic people and their families access earlier diagnosis so they grow up with the support and understanding that comes from an autism diagnosis.

* Providing resources and information that empower Autistic people and their families following an autism diagnosis.

* Creating inclusive, autism-friendly environments where Autistic people feel comfortable and free to be themselves.

* Providing specialist schooling for children on the autism spectrum in an environment that allows them to embrace their different brilliant.

I’m running this October for the 1 in 40 Australians on the autism spectrum.

I’m running 40km this October to raise funds for the estimated 1 in 40 Australians on the autism spectrum!

Increased awareness and understanding means more people than ever are being diagnosed as Autistic – connecting more people to the support they need to thrive throughout their lives. But it also means services are being stretched further than ever before - with many children left on long wait lists at critical times in their development.

I have joined Run for autism to raise funds so more Autistic Australians can access the life-changing assessments, autism-specific education, specialist therapies and adult community services they need to create their own unique brilliance!

Any contribution, large or small, will help create a more inclusive future for Australia’s Autistic community.

Thank you so much!
