Autism Awareness and Progress Still a Challenge?

My interest in this condition is to be able to understand the magnitude of the problem especially in Tanzania. Up to now we are not sure of the extent of this situation. After this understanding designed interventions to create awareness is necessary especially to the general population to reduce stigma to our children with autism. Acceptance of autism is critical as people think that mental conditions are a result of something bad that was done by the parents or ancestors that has brought the situation. AUTISM IS A DISABILITY OF THE MIND THAT CAN BE SUPPORTED TO IMPROVE THE QUALITY OF LIFE AND ACCEPTANCY OF THIS IS KEY! LET US ALL WORK TOGETHER TO ADDRESS UNTOWARD BEHAVIOR TO AUTISM, THEY DESERVE BETTER!
