where over 20 families responded out of 28 for statistical validity. ① ‘Big brother & big sister volunteers’ service is considered as higher priority however the families’ rate is lower than other top 7 services. ② Results show that services’ value for families is decreased as the length of being Camp Simcha is increased. ③ ‘Parties and outings’ service is very effective for younger children and especially those who have been with Camp Simcha for a relatively short period. ④ ‘Family retreat’ service
individual semi-structured in-depth interviews, in order to produce thick descriptions.

Methods and analysis Participants/Subjects The proposed study aims to focus on both parents and students views of efforts their parents make and what social activities they are involved in. The participants will be sourced from a local Facebook group ‘Adelaide and South Australia Homeschoolers’, where an invitation will be posted for up to 8 families to choose to be participants in the study.

Teddlie, 2003). The quantitative and qualitative phases are connected (Hanson et al., 2005) after data analysis in the first phase to guide the data collection in the second phase. For the sequential explanatory study, I will connect the quantitative and qualitative phase during the intermediate stage in the research process. That is, I will select participants for the qualitative phone interview from those who responded to the survey in the first phase (Creswell et al., 2003). Integrating the Outcomes

INTRODUCTION Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) are a group of neurodevelopmental disorders that have overlapping diagnostic criteria related to deficits in communication, and restricted interests and repetitive behaviour, Duffy and Healy ( as cited in Worley & Matson, 2012). Recent studies in the United States reported the diagnosis of an ASD in 1 out of 91 children of between age three to seventeen years (Kogan et al., 2009) and 1 out of 110 children age eight years (Rice, Baio, Van, Doernberg, Meaney
