The disturbing thing is that more and more older teens and adults with autism are being channeled into the criminal justice system.
After closing many of the warehouse mental facilities and repatriating autistic people into society. rather than spend the savings on resources to support the needs of the autistic community, most municipalities have diverted the funds to other areas, leaving adults with autism under the bus.
we need to change this. Autism is not a crime. People with autism should not be criminalized because society no longer wants to help those who can't help themselves.
