This project involves creating a Help Desk for the association to support, guide and accompany the families from the moment of diagnosis onwards, through qualified professionals. For this, a “Primary Post-Autistic Diagnosis Support Kit” was implemented, which includes all of the necessary information to help families make choices. The project also aims to create a pool of professionals and volunteers to provide “specialised babysitting”, ensuring they receive initial specialised training in autism, accompaniment and evaluation.
