Description:

The growth in the cost of the National Disability Insurance Scheme is making it financially unsustainable. 

But is moving some children with autism off the scheme really a good idea? 

The government plans to have a new program called Thriving Kids in place by July next year to support children with mild to moderate developmental delays and autism. 

Today, we speak with Jess Otter, whose son has autism and to the ABC’s disability affairs reporter Nas Campanella.
