Reimagine Australia, formerly Early Childhood Intervention Australia (ECIA), has been the leading national organisation supporting best practices in early childhood outcomes for children with disabilities, developmental delays, and neurodivergence since 1986. Our mission is to enable young children, their families, and the professionals who support them to achieve the best possible developmental outcomes through advocacy, best-practice guidelines, and innovative frameworks.  

We work collaboratively with families, practitioners, government bodies, and community organisations to co-design approaches that ensure a universally inclusive framework for early childhood developmental supports. By embracing the principles of inclusion, equity, and family-centred care, we strive to transform service delivery and system design to make a real impact on children’s lives.

At Reimagine Australia, we envision a future where every child, regardless of their developmental journey, has the opportunity to thrive. Our work is guided by a commitment to create integrated, seamless pathways that ensure consistent, high-quality support across all environments—home, early childhood settings, schools, and communities.  

As part of our commitment to systemic reform, we have led the development of pivotal resources, including the ChildKind Best Practice Framework, the National Guidelines for Best Practice in Early Childhood Intervention (2nd Edition), and the Reimagine Early Childhood National Action Plan to 2030. These initiatives underpin our approach to foundational supports, advocating for a joined-up system that simplifies access, provides flexibility, and supports children’s development in a dignified and inclusive manner.
