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.

"Living with Autism: Hope @ Home" -- an echo conference

At the heels of the success of the the recent 12th National and 2nd Asian Conference on Autism with the theme “Living with Autism: Hope@Home’ held last 28-29 April 2012 at the Crown Plaza Manila Galleria, the Cavite Chapters of the ASP is bringing the same enriching conference topics to South Luzon.


The ASP Cavite Chapters, in partnership with St. Brother Miguel Febres Cordero Neurodevelopmental Center of De La Salle - Health Sciences Institute and the Local Government of Carmona, Cavite will be holding an echo-conference “Living with Autism: Hope@Home” – the Fifth Regional Conference on Autism (the Second CALABARZON Conference on Autism) on 11-12 August 2012. The target audience for this conference are parents, professionals, students and local government officials and representatives from Region 4A and NCR.

Day 1 will highlight Community-Based Rehabilitation (CBR) Best Practices and Sites of the Municipality of Carmona to present a recognized model for PWD program, particularly for autism, to all LGU’s in Cavite and Region 4A. This will be hosted by San Lazaro Business and Leisure Park in Carmona, Cavite through the partnership of Mayor Dahlia Loyola and the Manila Jockey Club, Inc.

Day 2, which will feature salient topics on family and community approaches in addressing autism, will be hosted by the De La Salle Neurodevelopmental Center at Villarosa Hall Angelo King Bldg., De La Salle Health Sciences Institute, Dasmarinas City.

For us, Home is not only Family. Home is our Community. Home is our Town, Our Province, our Region. Let us elevate our aspirations for our children with autism beyond family. Let us make ready for them a wider haven that will nurture their minds and capabilities towards more productive and meaningful life! Let’s keep up with Hope@Home!
