Autism Network Scotland connects and communicates with those interested in the field of autism. We are a signpost for autism professionals and practitioners, people with autism, their families and carers toward examples of good practice, resources and useful information.
- We are funded by the Scottish Government and a vehicle in the implementation of the Scottish Strategy for Autism.
- We are part of the National Centre for Autism Studies within the University of Strathclyde.
- We are the facilitators of An Ordinary Life: the Needs, Rights and Aspirations of People with Asperger’s, and of the AS Forum.
Autism Network Scotland is widely recognised as a hub of direction to services for people affected by ASD and as a means of providing information, sharing advice and emotional support. It is seen to be unique and at the leading edge of inter-professional development in this field as there is no known similar autism specific network within Europe.
