=Challenge=
According to current data; autism is the most common neurological disorder and affects approximately one in every 44 children and it is estimated that number of children with ASD between age 0-19 is 434.010 in Turkey. Although there is a legal basis for children with ASD in terms of health, education rights; practices have not become common yet in Turkey. In other words, children with ASD and their families have still problems to access their rights.

=Long-Term Impact=
Through this project will create 434.010 difference in the lives of children with autism. In overall population, there are 1.387.580 individuals (children and families) affected by autism. Only 30.050 are able to reach education. The only treatment of autism is early diagnosis, intensive and continuous education.
