In celebration of World Autism World and as our way to show commitment in building a more inclusive society, ISC2 Singapore Chapter had partnered with St. Andrew's Autism Centre (SAAC) in April to raise awareness on autism.
On 7 April, Melissa Oh from SAAC shared on virtual session about the centre, a service of St. Andrew's Mission Hospital, established back in 2005 to meet the growing need to serve individuals with the autism. Today, SAAC's special education school, day activity centres and residential home serve over 470 persons with autism.
For School Years (7 - 18 years old), St.Andrew's Autism School offers a comprehensive developmental curriculum in accord with evidence-based practices for students on the autism.
And for Adulthood (>18 years old), the Day Activity Centres (DAC) plays a pivotal role in improving the quality of life for individuals with autism. The primary goal at the DAC is to foster independence and develop essential life skills for Special Education (SPED) graduates who are not work-ready.
As part of the initiative, our Outreach Team had also raised S$7,900 fund which benefited St. Andrew's Mission Hospital.
This heartfelt achievement cannot be done without all the generous donation from ISC2 Singapore Chapter's members and supporters. Thank you for your support to this initiative and let's continue making great impact to our society!
