Information and Support Services Survey 2006
One of Autism Victoria's important roles is providing information and support services to Victorian families. To help do this more effectively, users of Autism Victoria services were invited to complete a survey. It was a short survey asking for some background information (to form a demographic profile of service users), services used and user's opinions about access, value and quality of those services.
The Executive Committee and staff of Autism Victoria would like to thank the many members who responded. A condensed version of the data and information obtained in in the attached pdf document. Staff are slowly working through the list of respondents who requested contact to discuss their concerns and suggestions personally. Many of the suggestions will be progressively implemented over the coming year.
