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.

Good evening Ma'am/Sir,

I am Jarah De Guzman from Imus, Cavite and currently studying at UPLB taking up BS DevCom. I am doing some expert interview for my Devcom subject with the topic about autism. And I have seen your office in Los Banos, Laguna but I cannot execute my expert interview there because we are commanded to do it within our community. So I would just like to ask if where in Cavite specifically in Imus do you have center? Thank you for your time.
