Owning My Future: Funded supports for life’s big moments

Big changes can feel hard to navigate alone, especially when you’re not sure what comes next. AQ’s new fully-funded Owning My Future program is here to help autistic young people 9-25 years plan confidently for the future.

Owning My Future provides fully-funded practical, personalised guidance during important life transitions. Whether it’s receiving a new diagnosis, changing schools, exploring study or work options, or becoming more independent, the program supports young people and families to make informed decisions and move forward with confidence.

Working step by step, AQ consultants will help participants identify their strengths, set meaningful goals, and build skills for independence and decision‑making. Families are supported to create a clear, tailored plan and connected with the right services, supports and opportunities along the way.

Designed for young people who may not have access to transition planning through other supports, and for families navigating times of uncertainty. If life feels uncertain and you’re asking, “What do we do next?”, Autism Queensland is here to help you take the next step.
