As one of the series of public education activities to raise public awareness to childhood developmental disabilities, Child Assessment Service has produced a mini website 「媽媽假若我很不同」on Autistic Spectrum Disorder(ASD) in 2009. We hope this will promote understanding and acceptance among the public and enable the integration of ASD children into the community.

媽媽假若我很不同

With the purpose to increase public awareness and understanding of childhood developmental disabilities, the Child Assessment Service of Department of Health, Education Bureau together with Radio Television Hong Kong have jointly produced a series of 10 episodes of the programme "Parenting". The programme shares how parents take care of their children with developmental disabilities.

Starting from 31 May 2009, the programme will be broadcast on every Sunday at 7:30 pm at ATV home channel.

CAS cordially recommends this programme to your colleagues, families, friends and you.
