The National Autistic Taskforce

Milton, Damian (2019) The National Autistic Taskforce. In: Autism Show, 14th June 2019, London, UK. (Unpublished) (KAR id:75300)

Abstract

The National Autistic Taskforce was established to give autistic adults a stronger voice in the decisions and directions of our own lives – especially those with highest support needs and, often, least autonomy. We draw on deep knowledge of rights and obligations, already enshrined in law but rarely respected in practice, to increase autonomy in Autistic lives. We seek to ensure autistic voices are included alongside those of families, policy makers and professionals.
