Discover what’s possible when a mother’s love transcends her own home. 

Do you envision a community where Autistic children have a safe place to learn and Autistic adults are integrated in society? Do you know any parents of autistic individuals who might need some encouragement as they advocate for their children? 

If so, you’ll want to listen to this episode where one of our global partners, Jie Bing Zhang talks about empowering other parents by teaching them how to create opportunities for their children to thrive. 

Mrs. Zhang is the founder of Huicong Children Rehabilitation Center in Nanchang, China, and the mother of a 24-year-old autistic man. 

For this interview with Mrs. Zhang, our podcast intern, Linda Zheng, interpreted from Chinese to English for us. Thank you, Linda, for your effort to ensure Mrs. Zhang’s message is understood. 

In this conversation, we discuss:

  • Autism awareness in China
  • What it was like for Mrs. Zhang to receive her son’s diagnosis
  • Why she started her own autism center and the types of services they offer
  • Their partnership with Global Autism Project
  • This episode with Jie Bing Zhang was originally released on April 1, 2021.
