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 Autism Works: Opening Doors for Job Seekers on the Spectrum

Since 2016, the Autism Society Philippines has been helping Filipinos on the spectrum step into the world of work with confidence. Through the ASP Autism Works program, job seekers on the autism spectrum are paired with compassionate and inclusive employers in cities nationwide. So far, we have filled almost 300 positions in 11 provinces with talent on the autism spectrum.



For Applicants. If you have been formally diagnosed with autism, are 18 years old or older, and have the right skills and behaviors to take that first step toward employment, we’d love to hear from you. Simply send an email to autismphils@gmail.com with your resume and a short introduction about yourself and your work aspirations.

The application must come directly from you -- and not from a parent, teacher, or therapist. This is important. ASP believes in your right to choose your own path.

After we receive your application, you will be scheduled for a "getting-to-know-you" call, during which we will determine the best way to support you. The applicant, a parent or family member, and an interviewer from ASP will attend this call. The interview queue is quite long, so we appreciate your patience!

For Employers. If you're an employer who wants to build a workplace where everyone can thrive, we invite you to reach out as well. Please drop us a line at the same email address to schedule a discovery call with the ASP team. We’ll walk you through how your organization can become a champion for inclusion.

2025 Outlook. This year, we are filling positions in the private sector for various back-end administrative positions in finance and IT. We are also filling frontline roles in service-based enterprises, including supermarkets and retail dining establishments.

Over the years, the program has expanded beyond traditional employment. Today, ASP Autism Works also supports entrepreneurship, freelance work, and financial literacy, because there is no one-size-fits-all approach to success.

Together, let’s build a future where people on the autism spectrum are accepted, accommodated, and appreciated.
