Ghana is to host the 3rd Mr. & Miss Autism which is a pageant-style project organized by AA Antonio Foundation, reports 
ITREALMS.
The pageant, ITREALMS gathered, is the first autism talent grooming and empowerment hub in Ghana that promotes social inclusion through creative arts.

According to the Founder and CEO,Afi Antonio Foundation, Philomena Esinam Afi Antonio "To the glory of God this year will be our third edition."

She also revealed that on Saturday April 29, 2023 six (6) persons living on the autism spectrum disorder (ASD) would be battling out to wear the crown and own the bragging right of Mr. & Miss Autism Ghana 2023.

This event is set to happen at 3Music TV HQ. In attendance will be well-meaning High Network Individuals (HNIs), Health professionals, Diplomats, Social Activists, Social Entrepreneurs, Celebrities, Caregivers, Volunteers and Students.

The project manager, Kassim Alhassan Seid, said “We hope to reach and engage more with the Autism society and mental health community in Ghana and continue to promote social inclusion for persons on the spectrum and on a broader scale develop acceptance for persons with developmental disorders.”

Philomena Esinam Afi Antonio, founder – Afi Antonio Foundation is motivated by the acceptance rate in Ghana and she’s hoping that with the support of international and governmental organizations they could take this project to other parts of Africa. She said; “Having Government build special need centers in all regions to help poor parents who can’t afford sending their children to private centers will go a long way to help the already burdened parents”.

“Unlike the previous two editions, this year we will have children on the spectrum showcase and exhibit their handiworks. Appreciation goes to 3Music TV, Feiles Football Club, Kabi Chocolate, Akosua’s Kente, DDP Outdoor ltd and our day one supporter; Verna Natural Mineral Water. I am also grateful to the other numerous companies and media partners who have helped to make this event possible.”
