Autism Awareness Campaign Sri Lanka




It is declared that there are 30,000 autistic children in Sri Lanka . Many are being kept at home and there are only a handful of schools who agree to take in autistic children.

Sri Lankan entertainer , these children and adults think differently. Albert Einstein they say was autistic. How many in the audience know that there is only 1 autistic person in Sri Lanka? So we as entertainers, urge you all to ‘speak up for those who cannot speak up for themselves.’ Lets spread awareness of autism, particularly when numbers of autistic children are rising and we urge our government to also provide public services – who knows we may even produce Albert Einsteins if we provide education, health, specialist speech therapy for autistic children in our lovely island.'

One of Sri Lanka's most famous singer/songwriters, Nimal Mendis, is also supporting the campaign.
