The Department of Health Services in Kiambu kicked off a month-long celebration of World Autism Awareness by holding a sensitization walk from Ndumberi stadium to Kiambu Community Social Hall.
The event themed around autism awareness and acceptance is aimed at promoting understanding and support for people on the autism spectrum.
Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) encompasses a diverse range of developmental conditions.
Key characteristics include varying degrees of challenges with social interaction and communication that could impact an individual's interpersonal relationships, communication style, learning process and behaviours.
