As part of Aran Foundation’s ongoing awareness campaign, we recently conducted visits to paediatric clinics to engage with families and healthcare professionals about early intervention in treating autism, as well as the negative impacts of screen time on children’s development. During these visits, we discussed developmental delays, behavioral issues linked to excessive screen time, and the importance of early intervention in supporting children’s growth.
The response from the community was heartwarming; people were incredibly kind, attentive, and interactive throughout the sessions. It was especially encouraging to hear from families who shared their experiences and perspectives on the topics discussed. Many were eager to connect with us and receive further resources, and we provided them with contact details for ongoing support.
We were also fortunate to have meaningful interactions with some of the little ones, which added a personal touch to the drive. The doctors were very supportive and encouraged us further fostering collaboration between the foundation and healthcare professionals. This initiative reflects our commitment to raising awareness about autism and developmental delays, while advocating for early intervention and the responsible use of screen time.
