"It has been challenging, taking Rayyan out to the malls, or going to the movies like any other families. Visits to the doctors can be a real challenge. The sensory overload from the environment, the crowd, unfamiliar places, sounds, lights, smells and unpredictability often leads to his crying or screaming." (Datin Nor Hafizah Binti Saad, 2023)
In line with our 2023 WAAM theme, Becoming Autism Friendly, we want to advocate for making changes to the environment to better accommodate individuals with needs, rather than focusing on changing the individual to adapt into the environment!
The 4As of how you can be Autism Friendly:
1. Awareness - educate yourself on Autism
2. Acceptance - be kind and accepting of differences
3. Accommodate - make accommodations to cater to their needs
4. Advocate - include and stand up for them
Please join us in raising awareness and acceptance on autism by sharing this video!
