Government to issue official Autistic Alert Cards for everyday use

Closed 42 signatures

What the petition asks

I would like to create an autistic awareness card so the authorities know how to help people with autism. This should include the option to incude an alert in people's passports.
This would help people with autism feel included.

Being autistic myself, it's very hard to be understood by the authorities, in education, and police

This would come in handy for non-visible disability in various situations, in regards an incident and your embarrassed to tell them your condition.

This will help people understand those with autism more. Currently some people refuse your condition, this card will help people realise that people with autism may need extra care. The police, teachers and people working for the NHS should also have to undertake more training in autism so they know how best to interact with people with autism.
