Download Free PDFAbout this resource
The Autistic Communication Access Packet is designed to be shared with public entity staff — including government office workers, court staff, law enforcement, and civic organisation employees. It explains autistic communication differences and provides practical guidance for staff on how to communicate effectively and accessibly.
Who this is for
Autistic people who want to provide educational material to a public body or employer, and public entity staff who want to understand and accommodate autistic communication styles.
What it contains
- Overview of six key autistic communication differences
- A Do/Don't grid for staff interactions
- A list of reasonable accommodations that public entities can provide
- Plain-language explanations written for a non-specialist audience
- Autvance branding and official disclaimer
How to use it
- Share with a public entity before or after an interaction where communication was difficult
- Provide to a manager, HR department, or complaints team as supporting material
- Use as a starting point for a conversation about reasonable adjustments
- You can also share it proactively — for example, before a court appearance or official meeting
Tips
- You do not need to explain or justify sharing this document — it is a public educational resource
- Consider attaching it to a formal reasonable-adjustment request
- If a public body refuses to read it, that refusal may itself be relevant to a complaint
- Share digitally or in print — both are equally valid
