Autism Knows No Borders

Autism in Egypt and the International Mental Health Conference


Listen Later

Discover what’s possible when awareness improves access. 

Have you ever wondered about the level of autism awareness in countries like Egypt? Are you curious about what governments are doing for their autistic citizens?

If so, you’ll want to listen to these conversations I had at the 8th International Mental Health Conference in Alexandria, Egypt.

You’ll hear from several people whom I connected with there, including the Conference President and Secretary General of Mental Health and Addiction Treatment, Menan AbdElmaksoud; the Head of Child & Adolescent Administration, Iman Gaber; the President of the Egyptian Autistic Society, Dahlia Soliman; self-advocate Rami Alhadinziden Sayed; as well as several family members and professionals in the field of autism services.

Conferences are a great way to network with like-minded advocates while learning new strategies to help your autistic children, clients or students. Are you a professional eager to stay at the forefront of current best practices and wondering how to expand your services to reach even more families? Or a parent looking for support from others who understand your needs? Or maybe you’re a self-advocate wanting to share your story and educate others? 

Our Latin America Autism Summit is THE event tailored to address these pressing questions and much, much more. Mark your calendar for July 10th-12th, when we’ll gather in the heart of Lima, Peru, immersed in a dynamic atmosphere buzzing with insightful presentations, invaluable networking opportunities, and hands-on workshops led by industry experts. 

Join us at the Latin America Autism Summit, where together we'll live unforgettable moments and forge connections to last a lifetime.
