A message from Saeideh Saleh Ghaffari

Our organization, Iran Autism Association, is dedicated to raising awareness and safeguarding the rights of people with autism in Iran. We believe that a strong civil society and systemic action are necessary to fulfill the needs of the autism society more efficiently. Non-governmental associations represent the voice of people with disabilities, including individuals with autism. We recognize that the effective presence of families is crucial to achieving our goals. Therefore, we invite families to join us at all levels of decision-making and offer the help of consultants and specialists to lend a helping hand to people with autism and their families. We also welcome the experiences of other countries and organizations in confronting the challenges of autism and helping people with ASD develop their behavioral skills. We are willing to develop relationships with all autism societies and organizations to share our experiences and challenges and learn about others’ experiences, targeting a more effective role in supporting the autism society. Join us in our mission to empower the autism society and make a positive impact on the lives of people with ASD and their families.
