Research
AFA has a longstanding commitment to research in the field of autism. We strongly believe that research is the key to understanding both the phenomenology and treatment of people with autism, and building upon the existing services. You may want to come aboard our research team and build on the vast reservoir of data that we have collected.
Occupational Therapy
Occupational therapists are an integral part of the multi-disciplinary team at AFA and work in coordination with the special educators. They add a vital component to the progress of the children and adults through occupational therapy assessments, planning for and implementing individualised occupational therapy, as well as being in regular communication with parents, so as to facilitate the suggestions being carried out in the home environment too.
