The Autism Society Philippines appeals to government front liners to understand that autism is an invisible disability, with no physical markers. Please help protect our vulnerable community by exercising tolerance.
In case persons on the autism spectrum are found wandering or violating lockdowns and curfews, please endorse to the:
1) Barangay
2) LGU’s PDAO or
3) CSWD/MSWD.
These units would have data on PWD ID holders that would best help bring the lost individuals home.
