Creating awareness on autism

Umar performed at the launch of the campaign.

RAISING an autistic child can be an uphill battle. Apart from the emotional upheavals and costly therapies, families also have to deal with social stigmas and misconceptions, often leaving their child vulnerable to rejection and bullying.

Hoping to end misconceptions and raise awareness of this, CCM Pharmaceuticals Sdn Bhd (CCMP)’s CHAMPS health supplements launched the ‘Building Love Starts Young’ campaign in partnership with the National Autism Society of Malaysia (Nasom).
