IRODA was started by a group of parents who understand the challenges that can arise when parenting a child with autism. Whenever possible IRODA looks for opportunities to support parents in this role. Recently we were thankful to have a visiting medical professional from the UK who is also a parent of a child with autism himself. He was able to meet with parents connected with IRODA and share from his own personal experience as well as his professional background.
Time spent discussing stress-management strategies and suggesting ways parents could help themselves and help each other was of great value. IRODA hopes to continue to facilitate opportunities for parents to get the support they need while also reaching out to one another. We are grateful for your partnership with IRODA that enables us to continue to find new ways to help children with autism and their parents in Tajikistan.
