ASK believes that parents often find their greatest support in other parents who are in a similar situation. Sharing and learning from each other empowers parents. The unique aspect of ASK support is that it involves a parent helping another parent. Nevertheless, we are not forgetting the fact that parents also need professional support. Finding appropriate specialists and the right therapeutic options have always been a huge struggle for a lot of parents in this region.Programme Agenda
