Piloting Raupī te Raupō

This study evaluates what whānau and family members think about Raupī te Raupō, a new program aimed at supporting young children to flourish.

Family/whānau can participate if their child is under the age of five who are autistic, or who are showing signs of autism/social communication differences.

This study will involve questionnaires and an interview about an interview about what family/whānau think about Raupī te Raupō including helpful parts, parts that are challenging or unhelpful, and ways the programme could be improved.

The results of the study will be used to improve the programme, so that it is more helpful for whānau and families and more well-suited to their lives.
