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.

In celebration of World Autism Awareness Month, ASP Sta. Rosa families joined the flag ceremony at the Municipal Hall on 18 April 2016. We spoke briefly on the our autism advocacy and ASP’s nationwide 1Pangako campaign. Mayor Arlene Arcillas kindly met with ASP in her office; and signed our 1Pangako pledge sheet.

Visibility in the community is one important aspect of our advocacy. Face time with the chief local executive to articulate our needs and our priorities is a hallmark of genuine and meaningful government engagement.
