The Control and Prevention Center for Autism has conducted a study which has concluded that one in every 68 children is autistic.  The number of boys with autism is five times higher than girls. If it is true that 0.62% of the population has autism, this means that there might be as many as 18,000 people with the condition in Mongolia. Unfortunately, there is a lack of general information and a a shortage of expert staff and people trained in diagnosis Therefore, the “Autism Mongolia – AND” foundation has started a campaign named “Together with Autistic Children”, within the framework of which awareness and support works will be conducted among the population. “Together with Autistic Children” will continue until 15th May 2016.
