For OTs
We ask about functional goals before we design the support plan. We reinforce community navigation, transport independence, and workplace readiness in real settings.
For referrers
Community access that reads the plan and shows you the work.
For the support coordinator, OT, psychologist, transition coordinator or employment coordinator with a young adult whose goals could be moving — and a referral you want to feel confident about.
Who we walk with
The young people we know best.
We focus on one cohort, in one part of Sydney. That lets us go deep — and gives you a clear picture of who we’re built for.
A natural fit
- Young adults sixteen to early adulthood with autism, intellectual disability, or psychosocial support needs.
- Post-school. Goals around independence, social skills, employment readiness, or daily routine that are ready to move.
- Physically able to be in the community. AAC users welcome — we reinforce what your speechie has built.
What lands in your inbox
Notes that actually say something.
You should be able to see the trajectory before you ask. We write it that way on purpose.
- Notes name the goal we targeted, what happened, what the young person did when challenged, and what next week will build on.
- When he refuses to engage, the note describes what we did about it, and what shifted by the end of the session.
- If something changes in the support arrangement, you hear it from us before it shows up on an invoice.
- Invoices match the plan, line by line. Session descriptions name the goal area, not a generic community-access entry.
- When community access progresses into employment, we tell you while it is happening, not at the next plan review.
Side by side with allied health
Your goals turn up in the real world.
Community sessions should reinforce what you are already working on. We ask about your goals before the support starts, and design the week around them.
For psychologists
We treat confidence-building in community settings as therapeutic work. We work gently through resistance and tell you what we are seeing.
For speech pathologists
We use AAC strategies in real environments, not just at the clinic. We treat non-verbal young people as full participants in the day. We ask you what to prioritise.
For DES providers
Community access is where employment readiness gets built. When the young person is ready, the support shifts into job search and on-the-job presence, no handover gap.
For transition coordinators
We work with young adults at the school-to-adult-life cliff edge, before the structure disappears. Happy to present the model at a specialist school if it helps.
For support coordinators
You will see specific progress when you prepare the next plan — things to actually point to in the room.
From a support coordinator
“I have referred to a lot of community access providers. Most of them send me notes that say the session happened. That is it.
With Solace Path Care I did not need the notes to know something was different. I saw it in the OT assessment. I heard it from the psychologist. The employment agency flagged it before I asked.
A young man who had been completely disengaged was holding down a job. That does not happen by accident.”
