1/Children & young people with autism and learning disabilities who could be living in the community with specialist support are languishing for years in Assessment & Treatment Units, some of them locked up 24/7 in isolation rooms, bec of severe financial pressure on Local Auths
2/ At the same time, private providers running these ATUs are raking in profits, being paid £452m per yr in what has become a market driven provision where autistic and LD people are little more than commodities
3/ This in spite of the fact that caring for them in the community would be far less expensive not to mention far better for the individuals concerned, their quality of life, their security and safety and their wellbeing

Suite aux propos écoeurants de @dupontaignan (coutumier du fait quand il s’agit de #prison ), petit fil sur un sujet peu connu : les mères en prison, et donc les bébés et les très jeunes enfants en prison. Réinformation #detention #maternite
Rappelons ce dont il s’agit : 100 000 euros ont été débloqués pour 10 places pour une « crèche » (je reviendrai sur le sens du mot dans le fil, il ne faut pas s’imaginer que c’est comme à l’extérieur) à Fleury-Mérogis, pour les bébés qui vivent en prison avec leur mère
Dupont-Aignan s’indigne, déclare que le «confort des délinquants» est la «priorité du gouvernement», à la charge du contribuable. Rappelons qu’il s’agit de place pour des bébés et de très jeunes enfants qui ne sont pas des délinquants, sauf si on considère que c’est génétique...

Bon, vu les intoxs qui circulent sur le mythe des personnes détenues "nourries, blanchies, logées", petit point sur l'#économie de la #prison : coût de la vie, conditions de travail, salaires, etc. #détention (Sources en fil de fil)
Quoi que vous pensiez de la prison, ce serait bien de ne pas faire circuler le mythe de la prison "4 étoiles", ou des personnes détenues profiteuses (hein @dupontaignan ). Rappel des faits.
Bon je ne reviens pas sur l'état des prisons en France, la surpopulation, les conditions d'hygiène, les personnes détenues mélangées, etc, mais quand même. Allez voir les photos de l'équipe du Contrôleur des lieux de privation de liberté lemonde.fr/societe/articl…
