A scoping report on social care for autistic adults
[version 1; not peer reviewed]- Identify key subtopics within adult social care in autism;
- Understand what we currently know from research on social care in autism;
- Identify gaps in the literature and the potential impact of these gaps on the outcomes experienced by autistic people;
- Identify key opportunities for research;
- Make strategic recommendations for impactful research.
The review was intended to include people from across the autism spectrum and to take a broad view of social care. The review was to focus specifically on the quantity and quality of the evidence to social care related interventions, assessing a range of outcome measures but with a particular focus on Autistica’s vision of people living ‘long, happy and healthy lives’. Where possible findings related to cost effectiveness were also to be extracted.
