Archie’s Club
Focused on sibling wellbeing and support, Archie’s Club is a program that brings together kids with autistic siblings in a safe and fun environment.
Archie’s Club is delivered entirely online using Irabina’s Telehealth platform. Two groups, split into 7-12 years and teenagers, meet weekly to engage in a variety of activities that will enable children to build resilience, make new friends, receive support and improve understanding of their sibling’s disability.
Running over 20 weeks, each group is facilitated by two Allied Health Clinicians and an Autistic person who provides additional support.
Thanks to Oscars100, Irabina is able to deliver Archie’s Club completely free to our Irabina Families.
