"Sixty children receive annual treatment in the specialized department of autism. Trained specialists- a psychologist, a speech therapist, an ergotherapist, a physiotherapist, special pedagogues, a social worker, two nannies and a nurse work at the center.

According to the Human Rights Defender of the Republic of Artsakh, Gegham Stepanyan, today the problem with autism is widespread not only in Artsakh, Armenia, but all over the world.
"The spread of the disease is a serious challenge for us in the sense that the society and  the state must do everything possible to integrate children into society, to protect their rights properly.279220647_1184638838965542_4003613662008885130_n.jpg (1.71 MB)
In her speech, the Minister of Education, Science, Culture and Sport of the Republic of Artsakh, Anahit Hakobyan, said that children with autism are included in the inclusive education program. And the transition to universal inclusive education has raised a number of issues, including a lack of specialists.
"We also have serious problems with the legislative field. Accordingly, in 2023-2024 we will move to new educational standards," said Minister Hakobyan.
