 Planet Puberty is a digital resource suite by Family Planning NSW that aims to provide parents and carers of children with intellectual disability and/or autism spectrum disorder with the latest information, strategies and resources for supporting their child through puberty.

Planet Puberty was co-designed with adults with intellectual disability and/or autism spectrum disorder across Australia who guided the design and development of the project at all stages. We worked closely with parents and carers to create a resource that provides relevant and useful information to help parents and carers support their child through puberty. We thank all these people for their time, feedback and contributions.

We also worked with a variety of organisations with experience and expertise across a number of different fields.
