Crimes against people with autism and learning disabilities are in the news far more often. There has been little reliable evidence about the nature of victimisation to help advise community safety policy and practice.
A three year research project carried out in partnership with MCCH, Kent Police, Autism London and the Tizard Centre, University of Kent has been completed and we would now like to share the findings. The Conference is specifically aimed at researchers, policy makers, local authority commissioners and support providers, police, health care commissioners and providers, teachers, people with autism and learning disabilities, family carers and those working in the criminal justice system. The dissemination conference will be held on Monday 20th January 2014 at the London School of Economics 16.15 – 20.00 hrs.
