Emphasizing content development that promotes the improving of understanding, and creating human relationships and people skills moving us towards meaningful educations, successful employments and the realization of independent lifestyles.
Our mission is the development and creation of learning resources for neurodivergent children and adults, people suffering from nervous system disorders, and those who care for them and love them. We try to help put the pieces together.
People who have any of the various diagnoses in this group of existing conditions, their families, friends, teachers and their caregivers are all our Community Members.
It has long been known that music creates the electricity that kickstarts the brain, so we try to use it and shape it in our productions in order to help stimulate positive attitudes and mental processes.
We strive to work with our communities to develop new media and promote existing media projects to serve and help improve quality of life for community members.
Over the last 5 or 6 years, technology in the areas we work in, has increased exponentially. We use many state of the art applications that leverage the advances that have taken place already, and we will add new capabilities as they become available on a monthly basis moving forward.

It is story telling on steroids through the combining and the implementation of all recent advances in video, photography, graphic design and media development and promotional technology.
It is all done "in house", researched, developed, designed, produced and promoted in our state of the art studio and digital work rooms.
Our content is, and will be made readily available on social media platforms.
It will be free of charge so it can be available to all who want or need it, not just those that can afford it.
We are paid for our work, and our work is well funded, but the funds just aren't taken from the pockets of our end users.
Being diagnosed with autism is often seen as a tragedy. But for Jac den Houting, it was the best thing that's ever happened to them. As an autistic person, concepts like the Neurodiversity paradigm, the Social Model of Disability, and the Double Empathy Problem were life-changing for Jac. In this talk, Jac combines these ideas with their own personal story to explain why we need to rethink the way that we understand autism. Jac den Houting is a research psychologist and Autistic activist in pursuit of social justice. Jac currently holds the role of Postdoctoral Research Associate at Macquarie University in Sydney, working alongside Professor Liz Pellicano. In 2015, Jac was awarded an Autism CRC scholarship to complete their PhD through the Autism Centre of Excellence at Griffith University in Brisbane. Prior to this, they gained almost 10 years’ experience as a psychologist in the criminal justice system, with the Queensland Police Service and Queensland Corrective Services. Jac was identified as Autistic at the age of 25, and is proudly neurodivergent and queer. After participating in the inaugural Future Leaders Program at the 2013 Asia Pacific Autism Conference, Jac quickly became established as a strong advocate for the Autistic community. Jac is a current member of the Autistic Self Advocacy Network of Australia and New Zealand (ASAN-AuNZ)’s Executive Committee, the Autism CRC’s Data Access Committee, Aspect’s LGBTQIA+ Autism Advisory Committee, and the Aspect Advisory Council. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
The communities we seek to serve are made up of people looking for answers and understanding. They may need help for themselves, or they might be searching for ways to help others. Others may strive for inspiration or affirmation. Some may simply need to find hope or acceptance.
More than ever before, we have avenues that allow us to look for and find information about any subject or problem easily, from almost any remote location.
We no longer have to depend only on institutions to find answers about maladies and conditions, we have answers and hope coming from those who are actually experiencing them in real time. Their personal stories showcase successes and failures and everything in between. Now, we can tell those stories more easily and put them where they can be found. That is our purpose, and it will always be distributed free of cost.
