Participants of the Family Support Group with Teacher Ces and Dr Grace Gomez |
Teacher Ces was joined by Dr. Grace Gomez of UP College of Education and a new member of ASP’s board. Doc Grace shared her experience of her ward, an orphaned cousin with autism.
The participants shared stories and discussed a myriad of concerns about their loved one on the autism spectrum -- the importance of occupational therapy, improving communication skills, recognizing parental stress, the need for self-care.
Participants shared their learnings from the day’s sessions:
“There’s still hope in beating autism. That I am not alone in this struggle.”
“I learned much about autism management.”
“I want to become an open-minded parent. This is just a beginning of our journey with our 3-year old.”
