If you go to the NAS website, you can get a direct link from there. It's on their homepage because it's so important. I'll try to put a link on Facebook too.

PLEASE TAKE A MINUTE TO DO THIS EVEN IF YOU
ARE NOT AFFECTED BY AUTISM
People with autism, their parents and carers and organisations such as the
National Autistic Society have all said the same thing during the consultation
on the Adult Autism Strategy: for provision to be truly effective, we need
specialist autism teams in every local area and Autism Planning Groups
established around the country to identify gaps in provision for adults with
autism to plan and commission services to meet everyone's needs.
It
looks like this is not going to be taken on board by the government and WE NEED
PEOPLE TO RESPOND in order not to lose the opportunities presented by the
historic Autism Act: the first piece of disability specific legislation will
mean nothing if its not given 'teeth' by the Adult Strategy. Please pass
this on to your friends and family.
Thank you.
