PROGRAM SUMMARY
The gap we close
Young parents with newly autism-diagnosed children are desperate for direction yet stuck on waiting lists.
Research strongly indicates parent training during pre-service (waiting-list) period leads to significant increase in parent confidence, reduced anxiety, and accelerates child learner skills.
Organisations and professionals like you dedicated to serving them prioritize early-intervention for the child but often lack resources for parent training.
FUNDING
Budgets are stretched, and new tools compete directly with direct-service hours.
ONBOARDING RESOURCES
Staff time to orient a newly identified family is scarce, and often unfunded.
TOOLS FOR PARENTS
Parents leave with guidance to follow, and little structured help in following it.
About ThriveGuide
Mission
To give every parent the knowledge and confidence to support their child's development from the moment a need is identified.
What makes it different
Training is built around each child's specific barriers rather than a general curriculum, so parents spend their time on what matters most for their family.
1. STRUCTURED SCREENING
A guided intake that identifies the child's strengths across 5 primary developmental domains, and identification of unique barriers to learning.
2. ACCREDITED PSYCHOMETRIC SCORES
Instant generation of 5 key scores including CPRS-Closeness, DASC - Digital Addiction, Connors EC-GI, PRAS-ASD Parent-related Anxiety, and RBS-EC for Repetitive Behaviors.
3. PERSONALISED GOALS AND ACTION PLANS
A profile and plan generated from the screening results, along with daily, practical activities with progress tracked over time.
4. VIDEO PARENT TRAINING AND AUDIO GUIDES
Short, expert-developed lessons parents can complete at home, and audio-coaching for many of the action plans.
Over 2,000 families served
What the grant provides
$1,000 in Product Credits
Full ThriveGuide access for up to 4 families your team selects. Each family completes a screening, receives personalised parenting goals and strategies, and is guided through step-by-step action plans that target their child's specific learning barriers.
Dedicated Account Representative
A named contact who handles setup, answers questions from your staff and families, and checks in through the grant period.
ThriveGuide does not replace in-person therapy. It is an adjunct resource used to provide structured and personalized parent training alongside child early-intervention provided by professionals.
