Optism recently participated in the Macau Inclusion Conference, a two-day event held at Macau Anglican College and MGM MACAU, emphasizing that "it takes a community" to support children with autism. The event, which focused on promoting inclusion across the Greater Bay Area, featured personal stories and initiatives aimed at driving positive change in the ASD community.
On Day 1, Optism presented "Empowering Parents with Information on the Autism Journey", sharing insights on how small, steady progress can transform lives. Sessions like "Seeing Autism from a Different Perspective" and "Successful Transition into Adulthood" offered valuable insights, while workshops engaged participants with activities like basketball, football, and collaborative art.
On Day 2, we were inspired by leaders like Dr. Commander Kartikay Saini, who founded a school in India to promote inclusion, and Tony Bennett, PhD, President of the European Disabled Golf Association, who advocates for athletes with disabilities.
The conference highlighted the collective effort needed to build a more inclusive world, and Optism is proud to continue empowering families across the Greater Bay Area and beyond.
