The DFI Autism Sub Group met last on 11 May, and discussed the upcoming meeting of Awareness and Communications Working Group which is a sub group to the HSE Service Improvement Programme for the Autistic Community.

DFI Members raised awareness on the needs of autistic children and adults and their families. Members were also able to highlight their own disability specific expert knowledge to our DFI Representative Aisling Colreavy who will raise feedback to the national working group. Concern for ensuring the inclusion and regard for those with co occurring disabling conditions was a major discussion point.

The next meeting of this group will be on Tuesday 29 June 2021 from 11-12:30pm register here >
