Meeting the Needs of Ethnic Minority Families Living with Autism - Prosiect
Trosolwg o'r prosiect
This new project will provide support to families of diverse cultural backgrounds in Southwark, who have a child with an Autistic Spectrum Disorder (ASD). Parents will be given training to help them deal with the issues that arise from having a child with autism. The applicant states that the condition is a taboo subject within BME communities, and a greater understanding can reduce stigmatism and embarrassment. The project also aims to establish a support network, and offer parents respite care.
