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.

PARM M.O.V.E. Manila Run 2012 a success!

“I never even doubted for a minute that God will grant us a fantastic running weather yesterday during the PARM M.O.V.E. Manila Run 2012. Not only did the rains stop, the sun peeked until the end of the program. Absolute faith and collective prayers, with Him, anything is possible”.

More than 2,000 participants coming from the different local government units, colleges and universities, organizations of persons with disabilities, government agencies and supporters enjoyed the cool weather, despite the threat of rainfall.
