The Dutch Autism Association (NVA), visits the Amsterdam exchange for the gong ceremony for World Autism Day, annually on 2 April.
The ceremony is entirely dedicated to World Autism Day 2017. Special guest this year is Brigitte Blijswijk, COO Functions / COO Office / Management Consultant at ABN AMRO. When she joined ABN AMRO in 1987, she was unaware that she had autism. This diagnosis came when she was 47, when she was tested extensively after a burnout.
This year the NVA organizes the Autism Week for the 8th time, from 2 to 8 April, to create awareness about autism. The theme of the NVA Autism Week 2017 ‘Young and AUT', attention for the early recognition and detection of autism. During the NVA Autism Week the NVA asks attention for the approximately 190,000 people with autism in the country in a special way.
