The Autism Society Philippines (ASP) is a national, non-profit organization dedicated to the well-being of persons on the autism spectrum disorder. We envision a society where Filipinos on the spectrum become the best of their potentials -- self-reliant, independent, productive, socially-accepted citizens of an Autism-OK Philippines.

Wanted: Photographs for Autism Gallery

The ASP has been invited to participate in the Asia-Pacific Development Center on Disability’s (APCD) initiative to promote awareness of emerging disability sub groups like autism and intellectual disability. APCD dedicated a photo gallery section in its Empowerment Café website for this purpose, where viewers can gleam regional best practices and personal inspiration.


Autism Society Philippines (ASP) chapters are invited to send pictures of its activities; while individual members may send pictures of their child engaged with their siblings, parents and service providers in different settings like in school, home, therapy center, park, cinema, among others. Images must observe good photography composition and lighting; and must not be "Photoshopped" to include text, logos or watermarks.
