The Issue

Imagine being ignored, marginalized, and denied basic services because of a neurological difference. This is the harsh reality for individuals with autism in Western Cape, South Africa. Recent funding cuts have devastated our organization and over 20 other organisations in the disability sector , leaving families on waiting lists with little hope. It's time for change!

*The Crisis:*
Funding cuts have slashed our services by over 50%, abandoning many with autism to suffer in silence. The sector as a whole has received funding cuts, this is a crisis we cannot ignore.

*The Solution:*
We demand that South African officials:

1. Restore crucial funds to support individuals with autism and disabilities.

2. Ensure long-term sustainability for organizations providing vital services.

3. Create an inclusive society with equal rights and opportunities for all.

Sign this petition to show your support for autism inclusion ,ending funding cuts and demand better from our leaders.
