The Scottish Strategy for Autism Progress Report - Foundation Stage (2 Years)

Local Authority Action Plans

As part of the Autism Strategy funding, the Scottish Government awarded £35,000 to each local authority in Scotland to support the development of local autism strategies and associated action plans. This is in line with the Strategy's ten indicators of good practice in the provision of effective autism services which includes:

A local autism strategy - developed in cooperation with people across the autism spectrum, carers and professionals - ensuring that the needs of people with autism and carers are reflected and incorporated within local policies and plans.
