Cathy Genovia ASP Program Assistant
The early bird August 22 Family Support Group participants waited anxiously inside our humble office, while we distributed flyers of the upcoming conference. ASP Executive Director, Ranil Sorongon introduced and welcomed the participants, six mothers, a father and an aunt together with this month’s facilitator, Ms. Barbara Lu.
Ms. Babsie is the co-founder of
Sharing her experiences raising
Babsie emphasized: “There are so many things to look forward to and many opportunities available to help improve the life of our child with autism. We have to think positive.” New parents have now a better understanding of their kids.
After the said meeting, feedback forms were collected. And as I was reading them, this one really touched my heart “… Kailangan nating mangarap para sa anak natin at kailangan simulan natin un ngayon…” (We need to dream for our children and the time is NOW!)
Those simple words made me appreciate the meaning of SHARING HOPES, BUILDING DREAMS. I am proud to be witnessing parents building dreams for their kids and as a member of ASP family, building dreams with them. Hope to see you in the September 19 Family Support Group
