Section 4 Working with Other Agencies

This section provides a background to the importance of multi-professional/multi-agency working, and considers the roles of the different people involved in supporting children and young people with ASD and their families.

  • "To get any kind of all-round service, people with autism don't need a High Street full of competing shops; they need a department store where each department is aware of what the others offer and points people in the direction of other services which complement their own."

(Donna Williams, 1996, p. 50)
