Mulan Neurodiversity School (MNS) has unveiled a series of activities to mark this year’s Autism Awareness Month, kicking off with a dinner and official launch on Saturday, April 4, 2026.
The programme, themed “Embracing Differences, Empowering Every Ability,” aims to promote acceptance, inclusion, and support for individuals living with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD).
Thara Brigitte Mills Simmonds, CEO of MNS and autism advocate, explained that the month-long initiative will focus on raising awareness, encouraging early intervention, and strengthening support systems for children and families affected by autism.
As part of the activities, MNS will organise free neuro clinics from April 11 to April 30, 2026. These clinics are expected to provide assessments, guidance, and professional support to parents and caregivers.
The school will also host an Autism Awareness Walk to engage the public and foster community involvement in advocacy efforts.
The launch dinner will bring together key stakeholders, including professionals, parents, and advocates, to discuss challenges surrounding autism and explore ways to build a more inclusive society.
Thara Brigitte Mills Simmonds noted that the campaign is part of MNS’s broader commitment to promoting neurodiversity and improving access to care and support services.
