Inquiry into services for people with autism spectrum disorder:
Support services for adults with autism are non‐existent, and this can cause for disastrous results.
Better (and earlier) diagnosis for adults with autism in the community, and follow‐up support systems in place.
Funding packages for adults on the autistic spectrum who also present with other diagnosis (complex needs). These are currently not supported
There currently exist no support groups (peer) for adults with autism.
I would like to make more details available to the submission, but have run out of time.
