Blamed Instead of Helped – Understanding Parental Blame (RECORDING)

“Every time I sought help, I was met with blame instead of support. It was heartbreaking.” – Survey Participant.

Parents of Autistic children are too often blamed instead of supported when they reach out for help.

New research led by WM-ADASS in collaboration with the University of Birmingham and commissioned by NHS England explores this widespread issue, its impacts on families and what needs to change.

Join us as we host the WM-ADASS project team for an important live webinar discussing:

• How the research was conducted and its key findings.
• The impact of parental blame on families.
• 8 key considerations to improve experiences for Autistic children and their parents.
• How parents, carers and professionals can use this research to drive real change.

We want to ensure this webinar covers the topics that matter most to parents, carers and professionals. If you have questions or concerns on parental blame in Autism support that you'd like our panel to address, please submit them here: https://forms.gle/M9FDg1Hj6KG6Tddd7

You can also submit questions live during the Q&A section of the webinar.
