A Plug for Autism Awareness - Cyprus

10/2/2012

Now switching to the Autism side of my life, and a plug for awareness of Autism in Cyprus. 
For some years I have been working with Limassol based AASP - ( Autism Assessment Support and Practice centre) - joining forces with Stola and Nefi - who are both Autism specialists, and training professionals and parents who live and work in Cyprus.
(see picture)
The centre mainly supports children, however, we have received two referrals recently for adults. - both well into adulthood, and one of whom, although meeting all the cryteria for Autism has no diagnosis. The other, having diagnosis of Fragile X and Autism, are being supported within his family - who are under considerable strain, with little autism specific support.
We are working with both families, and for the lady with ' high functioning Autism' - (Aspergers Syndrome) we are able to deliver training to the family, and put systems and processes in place from her home, with a view to developing her independence and abilities.
My experience in UK is that these people have ready (Funded) access to appropriate support services - here it is different - there is a long way to go - and much frustration, however, due to pure family commitment we will be running the first appropriate and individualised  Asperger programme very soon.
This is a positive step - and I feel privileged to be able to help.

    I am passionate about Cyprus, and the village of Kouklia in particular. I'm lucky enough to live and work in the area
