Question 227 — people with disabilities

Summary

Ms. Valérie Boyer questions the Minister of Solidarity and Health on the care of autism in France. Autistic disorders affect 650,000 people in France and constitute a major challenge for French society. Much progress has been made in recent years. Since 2005, the law has imposed compulsory schooling for autistic children. Additional resources have also been made available for taking in charge of these people. However, much remains to be done, particularly regarding the supply of reception places which is too insufficient. The PACA region is particularly under-resourced with adequate structures. The shortage of reception places for adults is problematic, because young adults are forced to stay in establishments reserved for children (IME), which prevents the arrival of new entrants. THE Aging of the population must also be taken into account, because the life expectancy of disabled people is almost equal to that of able-bodied people. Partnerships between local authorities and associations are also a major challenge in order to facilitate the opening of more reception places for autistic people. She asks him what new measures the Government intends to take to improve the situation people with disabilities in France.
