April 2 – World Autism Awareness Day
02 April

‼️ April 2 is World Autism Awareness Day, established by the UN General Assembly in 2007.

🔸 The aim of the day is to highlight the importance of supporting individuals with autism and autism spectrum disorders, and to help improve their quality of life.

🔸 The theme for World Autism Awareness Day 2025 is “Inclusion in the Workplace: Challenges and Opportunities in a Post-Pandemic World.” It emphasizes the need to create inclusive work environments where people with autism can fully demonstrate their potential and contribute to society.

🔸 “Arabkir” Medical Center, through its “ArBeS” Health Center, actively supports children with autism and their families by providing early diagnosis and professional care. Our goal is to foster inclusion from early childhood, increasing the chances that less effort will be needed later in life. We support all initiatives aimed at raising awareness about autism and improving the quality of life for people with autism, working toward a society where everyone has equal opportunities and full inclusion.
