Overview
Parents of children with autism are best placed to know what services their children need. They also know the deficiencies of the system and the frustrations encountered while trying to obtain such services. This practical handbook draws on the real-life experiences, dilemmas and questions of skilled parent campaigners to show how parents can work to improve provision for all children with autism. It explains how the system works, provides invaluable information about local authority structures and government policy and helps parents work out how to 'customise' their campaigning to local circumstances.Synopsis
