Product Information

Having the right information to hand is always useful, but it becomes vital should you ever find yourself involved in a serious incident. We also want to build on our success in increasing the representation of disabled people, including autistic people, in apprenticeships – ensuring that disabled people not only access apprenticeships, but go on to succeed in their apprenticeship. We will do this by engaging with employers, providers, apprentices and the disability sector to determine what works and how best to disseminate this. Continuing to support autistic children and young people during the COVID-19 pandemic We want to reduce the health and care inequalities that autistic people face throughout their lives, and to show that autistic people are living healthier and longer lives. In addition, we want to have made significant progress on improving early identification, reducing diagnosis waiting times and improving diagnostic pathways for children and adults, so autistic people can access a timely diagnosis and the support they may need across their lives. Building the right support in the community and supporting people in inpatient care We want to develop a better understanding of the inequalities autistic people face and the causes for the gap in life expectancy so we can take the right actions to improve people’s health outcomes. To do so, NHSE/I’s new Learning from Lives and Deaths – People with a Learning Disability and Autistic People programme (LeDeR) will, for the first time, include autistic people. This means that all autistic adults whose deaths are notified to the programme will be able to have a review.

Here is a list of resources for those seeking ACT training or who want more direction in what to do next in terms of learning ACT.Read ACT In Practice: Case Conceptualization in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. This book details the ACT model and describes how to accomplish case conceptualizations from an ACT perspective, offering a précis of the literature that establish the importance and value of case conceptualization. Exercises throughout help you to evaluate the information you have just learned so that you may effectively integrate ACT into your practice. This strategy takes into account the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on autistic people and their families’ lives, as we know this has been very challenging for many. In summer 2020, we commissioned the Policy Innovation and Evaluation Research Unit (London School of Economics) to undertake rapid research to improve our understanding of autistic people’s experiences during this time, and our ability to respond appropriately. The final report from this rapid research is published alongside this strategy.

The second edition of Learning ACT was created to pull together all the developments that have occurred over the last decade since the first edition.fund an expansion of an early identification pilot programme, which involves health and education professionals working together in schools to assess children who may be autistic or have other special educational needs Autism is a lifelong developmental disability that affects how people perceive, communicate and interact with others, although it is important to recognise that there are differing opinions on this and not all autistic people see themselves as disabled. With an estimated 700,000 autistic adults and children in the UK – approximately 1% of the population – most people probably know someone who is autistic. In addition, there are an estimated 3 million family members and carers of autistic people in the UK ( National Autistic Society). By 2026, we will have made headway on reducing the health and care inequalities autistic people face, and show that autistic people are living healthier lives. This includes evidencing that we are making progress on improving autistic people’s health outcomes and reducing the gap in life expectancy.

This includes new legal duties on NHS local systems and local authorities to ensure an adequate supply of community services. To enable local areas to better plan for services and prevent avoidable admissions, it also proposed a duty on local areas to monitor the risk of crisis for autistic people and people with a learning disability. Furthermore, to ensure autistic people are only admitted if there is a therapeutic need, we proposed that an autism diagnosis should not itself be grounds for detention under the Act, and that mental illness should be the reason for any inpatient admission. We will issue our response to this in summer 2021. The Children and Young People (Scotland) Act 2014 concerns support for children and young people. It covers adoption, children's hearings, detention in secure accommodation, and consultation on certain proposals in relation to schools. The Equality Act 2010 improve understanding of autism among educational professionals by continuing to provide funding for autism training and professional development in schools and colleges in 2021 to 2022 www.hstoday.us/subject-matter-areas/transportation/u-k-seeks-ct-citizens-as-counter-terrorism-training-is-made-publicly-available/ The product was designed for UK based organisations, however, availability has now been extended to include use outside of the UK.

We also want to ensure that autistic people who are unable to work can access the benefits and support they might need. The Department for Work and Pensions’ (DWP) forthcoming health and disability support green paper will consider how the welfare system can better meet the needs of disabled people, including autistic people, and how the DWP can improve the service it provides. Once published, this green paper will be subject to a 12-week consultation. Including autistic people in plans for restoration and recovery from the COVID-19 pandemicEvidence shows that there is currently a significant employment gap for autistic people. Data published by the Office for National Statistics for the first time in February 2021 shows that as of December 2020, 22% of autistic people aged 16 to 64 are in employment, in contrast to 52% of disabled people, and 81% of non-disabled people. The APPGA’s The Autism Act, Ten Years On report found that there are many factors contributing to the scale of this gap, including struggling to get a job because of recruitment processes not being autism-friendly or difficulty accessing the support people might need to get into work or while in work.
