Empowering Autism Support Through Life Skills Education

In line with Mother's Day, Enterprise Explores dives into the collaborative efforts between the Autism Behavioral Center (ABC) and CookX Asia to empower mothers of children with autism. We explore the prevalence of autism in Malaysia, the essential role of mothers in imparting life skills, and the challenges faced in accessing support systems. ABC, Malaysia's largest ABA centre, and CookX, a social cooking app, are creating safe spaces for teaching life skills to the autistic community. The upcoming ABC x CookX event aims to instil valuable qualities like patience and teamwork while addressing issues such as food waste and social integration.
