There’s a great story in this week’s Woman’s Day magazine on how one of our Mission Australia services helped a mum and her young son through a tough time in their lives.
The Mission Australia Miller Community Pre-School and Early Intervention service in Sydney’s South West provides a range of supports to families and children from all walks of life, but particularly children with disabilities.
Julie and her son Jack came to Miller Community Pre-School when Jack, then aged two-and-a-half, started showing symptoms associated with autism – a condition that was subsequently diagnosed.
Miller Community Pre-school’s staff were able to work with Jack to improve his communication and motor skills – as well as education and development – through playgroups and other activities.

As Julie states in the article, “[Mission Australia has] been terrific, there’s no doubt about it.
“The pre-school has been invaluable and so supportive. We’ve cried on each other’s shoulders and they’ve put an arm around me many a time. And Jack’s come along in leaps and bounds.”
