Building a Future for Children with Autism

Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a complex neurodevelopmental condition affecting communication, social interaction, and behavior. While early diagnosis and intervention are crucial for improving outcomes, Uzbekistan has historically faced significant barriers in autism detection due to a lack of standardized diagnostic tools and trained professionals.

Recognizing this challenge, Vatandosh Connect, in collaboration with UNC TEACCH (University of North Carolina - Chapel Hill) and the Republican Center for Social Adaptation of Children (RCSAD) Qarshi branch, launched an initiative to enhance autism services in Uzbekistan. This groundbreaking project aimed to train specialists, introduce evidence-based diagnostic methods, and improve early autism detection across the country.
