For there to be a central register for care provision for Autistic adults
We have a severely Autistic 23 year old adult son who is now on his 4th move in 5 years to find suitable residential accommodation. Every time we have had to look for new places no one knows about what provision is available. There is not a central 'official' register to find such provision.
Local authorities do not seem to have lists available, certainly not for specialist autistic provision and although the National Autistic Society have some facilities listed it is by no means an extensive list. Parents/carers are then left to search the internet to see what they can find which is not only laborious but can miss some specialist provision.
There are care home web sites but again this is not adequate as they do not always cover autism or have very sketchy information.
You can't sign this petition because it is now closed. But you can still comment on it here at Repetition.me!
