Within the project, we have developed a database with family doctors and paediatricians from Bucharest, Arges and Suceava and we signed a partnership agreement with the National Society of Family Medicine. We have informed 2,000 doctors about autism topic, and 3,641 doctors were informed through the partnership with the National Society of Family Medicine. In addition, we have informed 120 family doctors by attending 4 medical events. We have opened 3 social centers in Bucharest, Pitesti and Suceava, with services offered to 89 children. 12 professionals from all 3 implementation areas have been specializing in applied behavioural analysis through the ABA therapy training course. We have also facilitated two experience exchanges between the specialist teams from all 3 social centers. Moreover, we have created a psychotherapeutic support application, IT ABAKIT, which was provided free of charge to the beneficiaries. The application was accessed and used by 435 parents and 98 therapists during the project implementation period.
