World Autism Awareness Day 2 April 2018 (A Preparation Seminar Today)

in #autism6 years ago (edited)

Hello Stemians,

Today I attended a meeting for the preparation of the eleventh annual World Autism Awareness Day which will be observed on April 2, 2018. I joined in the seminar as an autism activist and for my involvement with autistic schools as a volunteer.

World Autism Awareness Day 2 April 2018 aims to increase awareness among people about disabled people, especially children, with autism. The day often features educational events for teachers, health care workers and parents, as well as exhibitions showcasing work created by children with autism.

During the month, different foundations will arrange events to observe the day. As I am involved with an autistic school for the last couple of years as a volunteer, I have an opportunity to support the children who are autistic.

This year theme of the world Autism Awareness Day is empowering women and girls with autism and involving them and their representative organizations in policy and decision making to address these challenges.

On 23 February 2018, I went to a picnic with some of the autistic children in our city. I was playing with the autistic kids during the picnic.

On 2 April 2018, DC office will arrange cultural events with participation of autistic children from different schools and also will do a short distance railly and discussion seminar.

Useful to know about World Autism Awareness Day.

I have two friends here in the UK who are autistic so it is a topic I am always keen to learn more about.

Thank you. It was the second time I joined in the meeting to discuss World Autism Awareness Day. I wish to contribute more to Autism and this is why I have been working with an autistic school for around 5 years. I hope your friends will have a good life and this is of course a good motivation for you.

That is very good!!!Autism awareness is so important, thank you for sharing this article:)
