The Autism Society Philippines (ASP) is a national, non-profit organization dedicated to the well-being of persons on the autism spectrum disorder. We envision a society where Filipinos on the spectrum become the best of their potentials -- self-reliant, independent, productive, socially-accepted citizens of an Autism-OK Philippines.

ASP Cavite WAAD Activities

We are very pleased to be in partnership once again with SM Malls nationwide in this year’s observance of the World Autism Awareness Week (WAAD). Here in Cavite, the nagkakaisang ASP chapters will launch the “SPECIAL LITTLE STARS” contest at SM City Rosario, which will showcase the different talents of children with autism (CWA) in Cavite. Through this event, we hope to increase the public’s awareness and acceptance of who these children are and what they can do, as part of our advocacy for persons with disabilities.


Date: Saturday, April 2, 2011, 10am-2pm

Activities:

1. A talent contest showcasing singing, dancing, music, acting and artistic abilities of CWAs;
2. Special numbers from CWAs and other PWDs, if any;
3. A mini photo exhibit of the 2011 Angels Walk for Autism held at SM MOA last January 16;
4. Launching of the book “Mama. . .Yes Anak” by Dra. Ma. Luisa Campos - Caguingin, President of ASP Dasmariñas Chapter and mother of a 24 year old CWA;
5. A mini “Schools Fair” where ASP member schools all over Cavite can display or distribute info materials about their centers. That's all! Thank you! Happy WAAD!
