Impact of our research

Our research delivers impact in practical, measurable ways.
We focus on promoting meaningful outcomes and the full range of abilities across the lifespan. We work with other autism research centres and institutes in Australia and globally. Our four Research Programs align with research priorities identified by the national and international Autistic community, with La Trobe University’s research themes and with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals.
We deliver impact by sharing our research findings widely and by creating evidence-based tools for use in the community. We create pathways for Autistic people:
- to study with us
- work with us through work-based learning placements
- to become OTARC researchers and scholars.
