Nehemiah Autism Center
We are a group of families with autistic children. We were unable to send our autistic child to a school or a center to train and teach our children due to lack of space in the then only available autistic center in Ethiopia. So our option was, especially mothers, to abandon our job and stay at home to look after our child with no hope insight. When one of the mothers, Rahel Abayneh, came with a vision to open another center for these kinds of children, we stand with her and managed to open this center. We are now trying to reach to so many autistic children who are deprived of their rights for education and rehabilitation because of shortages of schools and society's lack of awareness. We first started with 6 autistic children. At those beginning days, due to lack of funds the board members were forced to discuss about the center sitting on the floor. We were in shortage of funds to pay salaries for the caregivers. Now praise be to God, we have 40 autistic children in our center and 20 caregivers to train the children.
