City Hall mobilizes CRAS’s teams during April Blue campaign services

The City of Arapongas, through the Municipal Secretariat of Social Assistance (Semas), promoted last Friday, the 26th, a group of specialized services for the “Abril Azul” campaign – awareness month about Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) . The four Social Assistance Reference Centers (CRAS) – Del Condor, CSU, Zona Sul and Araucárias, provided guidance and issued identification cards for people with Autism. “It is a mobilization and services that benefit the lives of families. A worthy and important cause. Providing support to the community”, said Semas secretary, Terezinha Canassa. Furthermore, the CRAS CSU social worker, Fábio Aparecido de Oliveira, reinforced what the Autistic booklet informs. “It is possible to understand a little more about those who live with ASD, the countless difficulties and challenges that require care and support. The initiative developed throughout Paraná brings activities that promote inclusion and acceptance, meeting demands and enabling guaranteed rights for families”, he highlighted.
