Australia’s largest autistic-led organisation 

I CAN Network has employed 34 Autistic people and mentored 1,052 Australian young people and adults through schools, TAFEs, workplaces, camps and online programs. Together, we prove what Autistics CAN do.

In response to the COVID-19 outbreak, I CAN Network has created a new program ‘I CAN Schools Online’, available to all primary and secondary schools, nationally from April to September 2020. I CAN Schools Online connects Autistic students with one another  through the insights of storytelling and facilitation from our young Autistic mentoring professionals.
