Information and resources for self-advocates with autism
Overview
This resource has been developed to equip self-advocates with autism to understand and navigate the Affordable Care Act (ACA).
The Affordable Care Act (ACA) made it easier to get health insurance for all Americans, including those with disabilities, but the ACA can be difficult to understand and navigate. As a result, Autistic Self Advocacy Network (ASAN) has developed a plain language Affordable Care Act Toolkit for Self-Advocates, part of which was funded by the Special Hope Foundation.
The ACA Toolkit has three parts:
-
- A self-advocates guide to the Affordable Care Act
- Problems with repeal and delay
- The Affordable Care Act: What can I do?
This toolkit attempts to help advocates understand and participate in these important conversations.
