You are visiting the first Brazilian association created by parents of autistic people to provide an education and a future to them. With this site we intend to help people who have to deal with the autism disorder. 
Autism is present in each 15 out of 10,000 births. This means that almost 15,000 people may have this syndrome in the city of São Paulo, more than 50,000 people in the state of São Paulo, and more than 235,000 people in the country. Perhaps you know at least one Autistic person. We hope that in this site you may find the most adequate clarification for your doubts about the Autism so you might help that person. To make your visit easier, we would like to suggest you some ways to begin with. What is your situation? 

I have an Autistic person in my family. 

I work in the treatment for the Autism disorder. 

I don't know any Autistic person, but I would like to know them better.
