Services Bankstown Community Resource Group offers for autism
Bankstown Community Resource Group provides early intervention occupational therapy services that support children with autism spectrum disorder during critical developmental years. Early intervention focuses on building foundational skills in sensory processing, motor development, and daily living activities that can significantly impact a child's independence and participation in family and community life. At Bankstown Community Resource Group, occupational therapists work with children on activities tailored to their individual needs—such as sensory motor activities using equipment like therapy balls and weighted vests to help with body awareness and self-regulation, fine motor exercises including threading, cutting, and handwriting practice to develop pencil grip and coordination, and structured play routines that build social engagement and communication skills. These early years are crucial for developing neural pathways and establishing positive learning patterns. Many families access early intervention services through NDIS funding (2025-26 pricing structures apply), which can cover occupational therapy sessions when a child has an approved plan. Bankstown Community Resource Group works collaboratively with families to identify meaningful goals and create practical strategies that extend beyond the clinic into home and school environments, supporting the child's overall development and wellbeing.

About autism
Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a developmental difference that shapes how children process information, communicate, and respond to their sensory environment. In Australia, autism is identified across a wide range of ages, and many families first speak with a GP or paediatrician about referrals for assessment after noticing differences in play, communication, sensory responses, or daily routines.

Common questions
Can occupational therapy help my child with autism?
Occupational therapists cannot diagnose autism, but they can support children with autism by addressing sensory sensitivities, motor skills, self-care routines, and participation in daily activities. Bankstown Community Resource Group's early intervention services focus on building skills and independence in areas that matter most to your family. An OT assessment can identify your child's strengths and challenges to guide meaningful support.
How do I access services at Bankstown Community Resource Group, and what about funding?
You can contact Bankstown Community Resource Group directly to discuss your child's needs and arrange an initial appointment.

If your child has an approved NDIS plan with occupational therapy supports, you can use those funds at the clinic. Alternatively, services may be available through other funding pathways—the team can discuss options with you.
