We are very thankful to Mr. Evert Malapad, active ASP parent member and SPED practitioner. Through his kind effort, he brought in a team of occupational and speech therapists to our municipality of Alfonso. They are T. Liza Gozo (OT), T. Michelle Rafols (OT), T. Joie Brillantes (ST) and T. Julie Rimanado (ST). The team also donated educational materials to the SPED Program of Alfonso Central Elementary School, where most parents are ASP members. About 36 children with special needs from this school and the community were given assessment and recommendation services.
Mam Jan Peña of ASP National was also there for giving us support. She also donated activity books for student and teacher reference. We hope this is just a start of a journey towards ensuring quality life of all children wih special needs. Once again in behalf of all parents here in Alfonso, thank you!
