Parents have been advised to seek early treatment when their children begin to exhibit signs of au­tism such as delayed communication and repetitive behaviour.

Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a developmental disability caused by differences in the brain and affects communication, social interactions, and behaviour.

Nk­rumah, would help make a change in the lives of children living with such a health condition.
