Updated Autism Strategy Consultation

Overview

The Richmond Joint Autism Strategy sets out the vision, aims, objectives and plans of health and social care as well as wider council and other services for people of all ages who have Autism Spectrum Conditions (ASC). This update has been produced as a response to the National Autism Strategy Update Think Autism, Fulfilling and Rewarding Lives, the strategy for adults with autism in England: an update and the subsequent updated statutory guidance which was published in March 2015.

This consultation is open to people on the autistic spectrum, their carers, family and friends as well as others who feel they are affected by ASC. We would like your views on the updated strategy and on the proposed actions for the coming 3 years.

Please read the draft strategy document and give us your views using the online survey.

Your feedback will help us to ensure that our strategy addresses local need, is relevant and appropriate for our area and that priorities have been set appropriately.
