National Disability Insurance Agency Consultation: Interventions for Children on the Autism Spectrum (May 2021)

AudA’s submission to the NDIA on interventions for children on the autism spectrum outlines: 

1. why audiologists should be considered and included as an integral part of the care for children with autism, particularly in early intervention years; 
2. what evidence-based interventions, including auditory therapy and assistive technology, paediatric audiologists utilise for children with ASD; and 
3. why – in appropriate cases – AudA considers that significant evidence supports the use of RMT as a “reasonable and necessary” intervention for children with autism and functional listening difficulties who are NDIS participants.
