No, autism is not a disease, it’s a different way of experiencing and processing the world.
“Different, not less.” Autism is a lifelong neurodevelopmental difference, not something to be “fixed.” At Blossom, we focus on support, understanding, and helping each person thrive with their unique strengths.
Autism is not a curse, punishment, or spiritual fault.
While its exact causes are still being studied, research shows it involves genetics and brain development—not anything someone did wrong. At Blossom, we work to replace fear with facts, offering support and compassion without stigma.
Autistic people only respond differently, not that it’s an abnormal response. They may take a while to perform an act, but it doesn’t mean they’re slow or incapable. Autistic people present differently because it is a spectrum, not a clear-cut disorder.
Let’s embrace them, support them and show them that life is worth it. Blossom Autism Wellness is here to walk the journey with you. From assessment , counselling sessions or even offering supportive products to further improve the quality of life for both families and the people on the spectrum.
Together, we can change the narrative around Autism not only in Uganda but Worldwide.
Absolutely. Many autistic individuals live deeply meaningful lives, build careers, families, and contribute richly to society.
Dr. Stephen Shore, who is autistic himself, teaches that with the right supports and understanding, possibilities are endless. Blossom helps families see potential, not limitation.
No, autism is a spectrum.
As Dr. Prossy Nakanwagi says, “If you’ve met one person with autism, you’ve met one person with autism.” Some individuals may need more support; others live independently. Blossom provides holistic wellness paths tailored to every journey.
Start by learning, listening, and letting go of harmful myths.
Support can be as simple as attending workshops, being patient, advocating in your community, or partnering with organizations like Blossom Spectrum Wellness. We believe that inclusion starts with one informed, compassionate person, you.
