The Autistic Adult Support Fund is available to third sector organisations providing services to autistic adults – promoting wellbeing and helping them to understand what neurodivergence means for them.
The fund builds on the work of projects funded between 2023 and 2025 to provide support to autistic adults across Scotland.
Successful proposals will meaningfully involve autistic people in the development, design, and delivery of the activity. They will be strengths-based, making the most of, and building on, the skills and experiences of autistic people and assets within communities. Additionally, they will complement existing provision by demonstrating a good understanding of what others are doing locally and how to direct people towards other resources. Finally, they will be evidence-based, delivering support that is autism-informed and has a credible evidence base.
