Kind of.
What tends to happen is that services get closed down, and everyone who has committed years of their life to making them excellent will have insult added to injury by being told they are just institutionalising service users.
The service users will be told they can all do their own thing now (which they were doing via day services anyway) - except in reality those "choices" will simply not be there. And what services that are available will be provided by charities, ngo's etc, by poorly paid and poorly managed staff lacking experience and decent training.
Still, when did anyone with autism or downs ever complain effectively (the media and most of the public are not interested in this group)? And of course, the staff who help them will all be gagged, so everything should go through just as planned.
Very depressing.
