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.

ASP Launches an Autism Helpdesk for Colleagues

The ASP Autism Works creates genuine, sustainable economic empowerment opportunities in compassionate workplaces nationwide. First launched in 2016 as an employment initiative, ASP's CBR-inspired model empowers PWAs and their families towards success at work and guides the enterprise towards a sustainable process of assimilating persons with autism into the workforce. The program is running in 9 provinces: NCR, Benguet, Cavite, Cebu, Davao, Iloilo, Laguna, Quezon and Misamis Oriental.

With workers on the autism spectrum now gaining more acceptance, accommodation and appreciation in compassionate workplaces, more people are given the opportunity to directly deal with neurodiverse individuals.

If you have questions on how best to work with colleagues on the spectrum, we suggest that you ask them directly. If this proves difficult, you can also ask ASP through this quick form. Expect an email response within 5 working days. If you have an urgent matter that needs guidance, please escalate to your company's Human Resources team for immediate attention.
