Autism Centre in Nigeria

From Awareness → Acceptance → Inclusion… what role do YOU play? On A Place at the Table by News Central TV, powerful voices come together — Yinka Ogunnubi, Kate Henshaw, Elsie Godwin, and Bright Jaja — to unpack a conversation that goes beyond awareness. This is about real inclusion, shifting mindsets, and how content creators, parents, and society can reshape the autism narrative. It’s honest. It’s necessary. And it will challenge how you see autism. Now over to you: 👉 What is ONE thing you learned from this conversation? Drop it in the comments — your voice could help someone else understand better. autism awareness Nigeria, autism acceptance, autism inclusion, neurodiversity advocacy, autism conversation, special needs awareness, inclusive society Nigeria, autism education, role of content creators, autism community support, disability inclusion Africa #AutismAwareness #AutismAcceptance #AutismInclusion #Neurodiversity #DisabilityInclusion AutismNigeria InclusiveSociety ContentCreatorsForGood AutismAdvocacy SpecialNeedsCommunity AwarenessToAcceptance VoicesThatMatter ImpactfulConversations LearnAndShare ChangeTheNarrative

Visual tools can make mornings easier for children with special needs. Simple picture schedules showing activities like brushing teeth, bathing, dressing up, eating breakfast, and packing school bags can help children better understand routines, reduce anxiety, and improve behaviour. Sometimes, what looks like “stubbornness” is actually a child struggling with transitions, communication, or processing instructions. These are some of the practical strategies you will learn during our Virtual Certificate Program in Special Needs Intervention. Learn how to support children with: ✨ Behaviour challenges ✨ Communication difficulties ✨ Sensory processing needs ✨ Emotional regulation ✨ Daily living and routine skills Join the virtual class from anywhere in Nigeria or across the world and gain practical knowledge you can immediately apply at home, in schools, or therapy settings. 🗓 Starts: Saturday, 27th June 2026 📞 Call or WhatsApp: 08180127108 📧 [email protected] 👉 Register now: /ibcces/ibcces-registration-form/ #PatrickSpeechAndLanguageCentre #SpecialNeedsTraining #VisualSchedules #AutismSupport #SpeechTherapyNigeria InclusiveEducation PureSoulsLearningFoundation Video credit @the_send_parents_hub

Gestures work faster when paired with words, especially when teaching children who are non-verbal. Every point, wave, clap, sign, and facial expression becomes a bridge to communication. Before spoken words fully develop, many children first learn through movement, imitation, and visual cues. Communication is more than speech. It is connection, understanding, and expression. That is why therapists and caregivers combine gestures with words to help children learn language with more confidence and less frustration. Sometimes, the smallest gesture can unlock the biggest breakthrough. 💙 #SpeechTherapy #NonVerbalCommunication #AutismSupport #patrickspeechandlanuagescentre #SpecialNeedsSupport ChildDevelopment EarlyIntervention SpeechAndLanguage InclusiveLearning TherapyWorks PatrickSpeechAndLanguageCentre LagosTherapy AutismAwareness CommunicationSkills SpecialNeedsNigeria
