The videos below capture glimpses of the journeys of five different autistic/multiply neurodivergent young adults, all of whom have recent experience in Victorian government secondary schools. Though their individual journeys are unique, they all share a common thread: each of them had champions on campus – teachers, school leaders or key staff – who created an environment of acceptance and understanding.
