Access Keys and Social Stories

Access Keys are customised accessibility guides that provide accurate and convenient information about accessing venues, events, and programs. They are universally designed and suitable for all people, regardless of ability.

Social stories describe social situations and aim to help prepare individuals for social interaction by providing clear information about specific situations. They can support people with autism, language disorders, social communication difficulties or cognitive delays and disability. They can also help families, support workers and educators.
