A shared framework for the disability and mental health
and addiction workforces providing support for autistic people and people with learning disability who experience mental distress and addiction.

with learning disability and who experience mental distress and addiction, all of which may or may not be formally diagnosed. The framework has been developed collaboratively by people with lived experience and workforce stakeholders. (From the document). Record #7901
