Progress in autism therapy isn’t linear—interruptions create setbacks that compound over time.

When neurofeedback funding disappeared overnight, families lost more than just access to therapy—they lost the momentum of consistent progress. Each week of interrupted treatment doesn’t just pause development; it risks regression that can take months or years to recover. The true cost isn’t measured in missed sessions but in lost opportunities for development.

Consistency is the foundation of effective autism support.

Breaking the rhythm of successful treatment creates ripples that affect every aspect of development. Sleep patterns change, behavioural regulations slip, and emotional progress stalls. These aren’t just temporary setbacks—they’re fundamental disruptions to established patterns of progress.

The NDIS decision ignores the delicate nature of developmental momentum.

When effective treatment stops abruptly, we don’t just lose current progress—we risk undermining the foundation for future development. Each day without appropriate support widens the gap between potential and reality, creating barriers that become increasingly difficult to overcome.

We can’t afford to sacrifice long-term progress for short-term savings.

The reinstatement of neurofeedback funding is crucial to protecting the momentum of development for those who depend on this therapy. Every day of interrupted treatment represents another step backward in the journey toward independence and wellbeing.
