About Us

Amaze is a leading autism organisation working to create a more autism-inclusive Australia where Autistic people and their families can live their best lives. For nearly 60 years, Amaze has supported Autistic people, families and carers, while working to improve the systems, environments and organisational practices that shape Autistic lives.

With national reach, Amaze is home to Autism Connect – Australia’s national autism information, advice and referral service – providing free, trusted and evidence-informed support to people across Australia.
