Networking

Autism Africa actively seeks partnerships with other non-governmental organizations and persons interested in autism both within Africa and abroad.

These relationships help share experiences and insure that support is provided to as many families as possible.

To facilitate this process, Autism Africa is establishing a Federation of African Autism Organisations to represent the various schools and parent support groups all over the continent.
