Autism and the Law

The law is vital for autistic people and their families.

It provides protections and sets out duties that public bodies and other organisations must meet.

But the law can be complex – and it can be hard to know which specific parts of the law are most important for autistic children, young people and adults, and their families.

In conjunction with Adam Feinstein, we have put together a page of resources, where we set out some key points of law for autistic people and their families. We will keep this page updated to reflect any major changes to the law in the future.
