Creating The Autistic Village - A model for creating Autistic Community through Autistic Led Organisations

Do take a look at the website. Creating the Autistic Village. I'm sure the owner of the Autism Woodland Project (who conceived this concept with permission from the organisations listed) would appreciate your comments - and that of your autistic friends. 

Creating the Autistic Village is based on the proverb, 'it takes a village to raise a child.'  This proverb (believed to have originated in Africa), describes how raising a child is a shared responsibliity, not only parents and relatives but neighbours, teachers and other members of the community. Such connectedness is vital for the autistic community yet services are often difficult to find in the mass of social media. This flowchart offers a simple, comprehensive map of autistic-led services in Devon. It can be used as a template for others who wish to map autistic-led services for the convenience of those in the locality. Where services are unavailable locally, each of the services listed can be contacted for advice on how they set up.
