PSA Senior Project Script (IMED)

My name is Hira Bhura. My Senior Project is based on Autism in children.

Autism Spectrum Disorder, also known as ASD, is a developmental disability that is caused by the abnormal function of the brain. It affects the nervous system resulting in abnormal social interaction and behavioral and communication difficulties.
A person who has ASD usually goes through many conflicts with communication and social interaction skills.
It is estimated that about three to six children out of every 1,000 will have autism.
Children’s unusual behaviors can be first noticeable as early as six months of age.
These children go through a lot of peer and even parental ignorance.
Their abilities to ace a certain task is beyond inspirable.
These children diagnosed with Autism have a special talent they all adhere.
Autism is nothing but another puzzle.
There are solutions yet not many actions.
Device implementation; such that helps these children become better communicators and gain confidence.
This topic is very important because, every year the amount of autistic children is gradually increasing.
Elements like classroom activities, one-on-one mentoring, and many other grouped facilities are available; there’s not much improvement in the children's behaviors.
