In line with the celebration of the 13th Autism Consciousness Week, ASP presents the first Family Support Group Meeting.
Our facilitator for this month is Ms. Grace Adviento. She is a physical therapist by training but a copy center entrepreneur by profession. This woman of many talents is an invaluable resource to ASP. Her down-to-earth and magnetic appeal makes her one of the best facilitators of ASP's Early Detection and Intervention Program. Mother to 7-year old Adrian, she serves her second term in the ASP Board and is the present Vice President of ASP.
Hear straight from Grace an excerpt from the upcoming FSG: "I ound myself in a twilight zone. The feeling is like dreaming while awake. I felt numb. I was shocked, in denial, angry and depressed all at the same time. The dreams I had for my son, going to Ateneo or becoming a congressman, were thrown out of the window. However, I discovered that the more I shared my experiences to others, acceptance of Adrian easier and my own recovery quicker.”
Hurry, call 7-903-5496 to book your seats (only 15 pax available) on 24 January 2009, Saturday, at 1pm ASP Office, Room 307, ML Building,# 47 Kamias Road, Quezon City.
