This morning was truly special!

We spent time with parents of children with autism (ASD), bringing stategies, talking about speech and language therapy and sharing experiences. Making us all connect with each other and learn. 💬✨

“Parents spent the majority of their time with their children and should be empowered, heard and supported. They are the real super heroes and heroines 🦸🏼‍♀️!” - Andrea, Speech and language therapist.

Big thanks to IRMO for partnering with us and giving us the opportunity — together, we’re building a stronger, more supportive community. 💛

And big thanks to all the parents who attended the workshop. 🤩
