Background

The Australian Government Department of Health and Aged Care has listened to many Autistic people, their families and carers, and a range of experts to create a draft version of the National Roadmap to Improve the Health and Mental Health of Autistic People (the Autism Health Roadmap).

The aim of the Autism Health Roadmap is to address the issues faced by Autistic people in the health care system and to outline actions to improve the health and mental health outcomes for Autistic people in Australia.

The Autism Health Roadmap has been developed through expert advice, by looking at current evidence and by listening to many Autistic people, their families and carers, and other stakeholders.

You can read the Autism Health Roadmap here https://www.health.gov.au/resources/publications/autism-roadmap-consultation-draft
