Every April, the world works together to build an inclusive community where autistic individuals are embraced.
Driven by the fact that autism is the fastest-growing developmental disability in the world, SA along with many other countries celebrate Autism Acceptance Month (April). In 2021, Autism Awareness Month was renamed Autism Acceptance Month to foster acceptance and ignite change.
Autism spectrum disorder is a severe developmental disorder that harms one’s ability to communicate and interact.
The Key School deeply understands the need to foster awareness and acceptance to ignite change and a healthier lifestyle through improved opportunities for people with autism. It works every day to improve the lives of affected children and their families. With the autism diagnosis rate increasing fast, we take these 30 days to celebrate the differences of-, learn more about-, and empower autistic children.
The Key School offers a safe space for children with autism, also known as autism spectrum disorder, between the ages of 2 and 13 in the leafy suburb of Parktown. On April 22 from 09:00 the school plans to have all its families at the school to picnic together and to do a Big Walk to draw further attention to autism.
