About Us
Dear Friend,
At Autism Cork, we are dedicated to supporting parents, teachers, professionals, and autistic individuals in enhancing the quality of life for children and adults on the autism spectrum.
We firmly believe that understanding autism, combined with collaborating closely with autistic people, is key to providing the right supports to meet their unique needs. Autistic individuals do not need to fit in; they need to be understood.
We feel privileged to help you connect with the world’s leading experts and practitioners in autism. Our goal is to provide you with practical strategies, actionable insights, and solution-focused tools to better support those you care for and support.
Our autism trainings have reached thousands of autistic individuals, parents and professionals worldwide, spanning over 50 countries including the USA, Canada, Ireland, the UK, Australia, and many more across Asia, Europe, Africa, and South America.
This journey is deeply personal to us. My non-speaking autistic brother has been one of my greatest teachers in understanding autism, and his experiences continue to inspire our mission.
We are committed to offering comprehensive solutions in partnership with autistic individuals, across the entire autism spectrum and throughout their lifetime. Our approach focuses on meeting their needs as effectively as possible.
To achieve our mission, we aim to:
-
Improve the understanding of autism.
-
Deliver training that educates, empowers, and inspires.
-
Offer practical, solution-focused supports, tools, and resources from leading autism experts globally.
-
Transform perceptions of autism to foster a more empowering and positive mindset.
-
Develop an inclusive and autism-friendly approach in partnership with autistic individuals, respecting and honoring the unique needs of each parent, professional, and autistic person.
-
Provide reliable, evidence-based interventions and supports in autism.
Thank you for your continued support. None of this would be possible without you.
Everyone is welcome to attend our trainings and events. We look forward to sharing this journey with you.
Warm regards,
Micheál O’Mathúna
