Dear,
I am planning to move to Adelaide in 6 months on PR 190, however i have a 3 year son with ASD, he has been advised to do ABA, OT and Speech therapy and currently we are doing those however i would like to the following:
1) What kind of government funding options are available in SA for such case?
2) What is the waiting period for such funding?
3) Where should i start from? Can i start now and register my son in a particular school or government agency so by the time i come there his name is already on the list?
Basically i need some guidance here on where to start from? i dont want to come to Adelaide and wait to start therapy for my son as every minute is precious for my son.
Thanks,

Hi All,
Thanks for the reply, has anyone dealt with NDIS? I saw that in SA they will do a complete rollout in Feb 2016, but i have also read that some people had to wait for 40 - 80 days before getting funding? also even for assessment with NDIS it takes time., can any one share their experience with NDIS? also i know that NDIS will not cover 100% of therapy however i came across this website which mention's other kind of help and funding also http://raisingchildren.net.au/support/autism_support.html, can anyone share their experience about funding other than NDIS?
Thanks,
