It's predicted that there are around 1,479 people on the Island with Autism Spectrum Condition (ASC).
That's according to the autism strategy for 2024-34, which is scheduled to appear before Tynwald in January.
The estimated figure is based on UK figures.
The main ambition of the strategy is to make the Island a place that's open to making changes and empowering those with ASC to participate fully in society.
