A generation of autism support professionals loses crucial development opportunities.

Since the neurofeedback funding cut, new practitioners lose essential training opportunities in specialised therapy approaches. The removal of funded treatment options doesn’t just affect current care—it creates gaps in professional development that will impact autism support quality for years to come.

Professional expertise grows through hands-on experience with diverse therapies.

When funding cuts eliminate treatment options, they also eliminate vital learning opportunities for emerging professionals. The loss of neurofeedback as a funded therapy means fewer practitioners gain experience with specialised intervention approaches.

Each lost learning opportunity affects future care quality.

Today’s gaps in professional development become tomorrow’s shortages in specialised expertise. Without exposure to diverse treatment approaches, new practitioners enter the field with narrower skill sets and limited therapeutic tools.

We must protect pathways to professional excellence.

Reinstating neurofeedback funding isn’t just about current treatment—it’s about maintaining professional development opportunities that ensure high-quality autism support for future generations.
