What do you think are the most important points of advocacy or activism for ASD individuals? What is your personal political "agenda" for autism issues? What "camp" do you fall under different issues in the community? Do you like the current model of autism advocacy, or do you think there should be changes?

Autism Speaks has too much of a monopoly on setting the Autism priorities and policy in America.

ASAN should not be the only organization people go to, to get the Autistic perspective.
