Time to Make Rights a Reality for Autistic People and People with a Learning Disability
ENABLE Scotland, National Autistic Society Scotland and Scottish Autism are three national charities working alongside autistic people and people who have a learning disability and their families to campaign for much-needed change.
In the lead up to the Scottish Parliamentary Elections in May 2021 we’re calling on all the major political parties in Scotland to commit to a Commissioner for autistic people and people with a learning disability to ensure real change.
Our Voice Our Rights is a campaign to make Scotland the best country in the world for autistic people and people with a learning disability. A country where human rights are respected and upheld; a country where everyone has equal access to the services and support they need; a country where autistic people and people with a learning disability are active citizens and are fully supported to fulfil their potential.
Campaign Progress: The Impact of Our Voice Our Rights
Launched in January 2021, our key objective was to ensure that all the major political parties in Scotland committed to a Commissioner to promote and protect the rights of autistic people and people with a learning disability within their manifestos in the lead up to the May 2021 Scottish Parliamentary Elections.
