The Government has provided £0.5 million to 8 research initiatives to advance autism awareness.
Seven of the 8 (according to the NAS website under:the autism strategy an overview - autism awareness and training - government commissioned autism awareness training) have produced outcomes of various kinds.
The eighth is NAS which just gives a link back to the page explaining the autism strategy.
NAS is the one heading up the PUSH FOR ACTION campaign. What was the NAS funded research outcome, and why is there nothing set against the NAS contribution in that part of the website?
The Royal College of Psychiatrists and British Psychology Society seem to have produced E-learning packs which as yet I haven't found a way into to find out what they say - I probably have to buy one to see what its about.
Oxford University interviewed 37 people on the spectrum and other groups of parents, siblings and grandparents. Not altogether clear what they found out. Skills for Health/Skills for Care carried out widespread consultation, whatever that means in practice? But they all have something allegedly productive to say, except NAS.
