Cartoon: campaigners

Campaigning is critical if people with autism and their families are to get a better deal from society, and from the services that exist to support them.

The National Autistic Society works at a national level to champion the rights and interests of people with autism and their families and ensure that policy and legislation reflect their needs. However, national policies and laws are interpreted and delivered locally so your contribution is vital to achieve positive changes.

Join the Campaigns Network today to receive regular updates about The National Autistic Society's campaigning activity, and about how you can get involved.
