A debate has been developed across the Autism-Europe membership on the need and possibility to promote a European Accreditation System for service delivery for autism.
Following the awareness-raising campaign and consultation process via the web across the enlarged network of organisations/persons involved in Autism carried out during the European year of People with Disabilities 2003 project (with the support of the European Commission, Directorate-General for Employment) and the reflections on the quality of residential facilities carried out during the partnership in the project “Included in Society” (with the support of the European Commission, Directorate-General for Employment). It resulted in the publication of a document: Autism Europe on Quality Assessment- Perspectives for a European accreditation system for autism.
