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 Family Support Group for March 2011

Share your hopes and dreams with us. We will listen
Ms. Evelyn Go with son Gelo

Our FSG facilitator for the month of March is no other than Ms. Evelyn Go. Evelyn is deceptively low key yet her accomplishments as a mother and entrepreneur speak volumes. She has been an ASP member for the last 10 years and was elected unto the BOT in 2005. Her background in Nutrition did not deter her from heading two companies engaged in wholesale and retail of surplus auto and truck engines and replacement parts. Her 19 year-old ASD son, Gelo, a gourmet cook, has encouraged her to take up graduate courses in Special Education at UP Diliman. Evelyn serves as ASP’s Treasurer, putting ASP’s financial resources in order.

”At first I didn’t quite understand the extent of Gelo’s condition, how autism affected his capacity to learn. I thought it was just something that can be taken cared of by sending him to school,” says Evelyn.
