How do we get autism support right in Aotearoa New Zealand?
We want to understand your experiences and opinions of current supports and what you think is needed for the future.
Have your say! Take part in an anonymous survey that will take up to 20 minutes for most people to complete.
The survey is open to autistic people, parents/carers, family/whānau, professionals, researchers, and policy makers.
You can go in the draw to win one of 100 Prezzy Cards valued at $25 each.
To find out more and to complete the survey online click here: www.surveymonkey.com...
Alternative survey options
You are welcome to have a support person help you complete the survey.
Paper copies and easy read versions of the survey are available.
You can also complete the survey with support from a member of the research team via a telephone, Zoom, or face-to-face interview.
Completing the survey in this way will mean that your responses will not be anonymous but will be confidential to the research team.
We will endeavour to support completion of the survey in another language upon request.
This research has been approved by the Te Herenga Waka—Victoria University of Wellington Human Ethics Committee (Application number: 30857)
To find out more about alternative survey options or if you have any questions you can contact the research team on: research@autismnz.org.nz or 021 190 6070.

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
