Action Proposal for Caring for Families of Children with Autism

Dear people from all walks of life, dear friends:

There is a group of children around us who have bright eyes but do not look at you; Though they have words, they do not communicate with you; They hear sounds, but they don't interact with you; They express emotions, but they don't empathize with you. They are like stars in the sky, twinkling alone in the distant and dark night sky. They were given the nickname "children of the stars" – children with autism.

Autism, also known as autism or autism disorder, is a representative disease of pervasive developmental disorder. This disease involves the interaction of various factors such as genetics and environment, and is not a mental illness or a manifestation of withdrawn personality. Autism usually begins before the age of three and affects the patient's social skills, communication skills, interests, and behavior patterns. According to reports, there are currently more than 13 million autistic patients in China, with an annual growth rate of nearly 200,000, and the incidence of autism has accounted for the first place in all types of mental disabilities.

Autism requires long-term training and special education support, and is a long and complex process. Families of children with autism face multiple economic, psychological and social pressures. They may have to bear the high cost of ** while also facing misunderstandings and prejudices in society.

At the beginning of the year, the Guangdong Provincial Women's Federation released ten practical things about the livelihood of women and children in Guangdong in 2024, and caring for 1,000 families of children with autism is one of them. At the same time, the Provincial Women's Federation and the Provincial Women's and Children's Association will jointly carry out the "Light Up the Stars, Love is Not Alone" action to care for the families of autistic children and release it on April 2, the "World Autism Awareness Day". The action cares for the families of children with autism by providing family assistance, medical subsidies, psychological counseling, group health activities, etc.

Here, we propose: hope that all sectors of society will deepen their understanding of autism, strive to create an inclusive and supportive environment, break down various barriers, and let the families of autistic children feel the warmth and care from the party, society and society.

We hope that parents can recognize their children's special needs as early as possible and intervene as soon as possible to promote their development and development.

We hope that the public will have more understanding and care for children with autism, and convey encouragement and support to their parents.

We hope that caring enterprises, people and non-profit organizations can reach out to autistic children and their familiesDonations and materials, services, and positionsand other acts of kindness to light up the light of hope in their lives.

Every child with autism is a unique star and deserves our gentleness. Let us join hands to light up the stars in the night sky, warm and accompany autistic children with love, and make their world no longer lonely!
