Thursday marks World Autism Awareness Day, a day dedicated to deepening understanding and fostering worldwide support for people with autism.

CGTN Health Talk invites Dr. Jia Meixiang, China's leading expert on autism and chief physician at the Child Psychiatry Department of Peking University Sixth Hospital.

She emphasizes that parents should seek professional guidance as soon as they notice developmental delays in their children, such as in language or social skills.

Early intervention is crucial for any child showing developmental delays – not just those diagnosed with autism. It buys valuable time during a child's critical developmental years, which can help reduce future challenges, Jia said.

Parents are also encouraged to learn basic training methods and work closely with experts and social support systems to provide comprehensive care, helping children thrive in school and daily life.
