Project name: Autism new challenges in ANCAAR
Hosting organization: ANCAAR
Sending organization: “Common Sense” Youth Organization
Purpose of the project: The purpose of our project is to integrate young people with austere spectrum disorder in the community, by developing on the one hand their social skills and autonomy, and on the other hand by informing and sensitizing the community about the obstacles and discrimination that come with them, which these people but also their families face. This project was born due to the need of children with the autism spectrum who participate much less often in social activities compared to the typical ones. There is also a need to inform and raise awareness in the community about the obstacles and discrimination of people with autism spectrum disorders.
