The Malezi Program is an intensive five-weekend short course that gives parents, teachers, caregivers and anyone else who wants to learn the practical skills and cultural insight to care for and empower children and young adults with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), at home and in the community.
Sessions run on Saturdays at Bloom Garden Autism Academy in Lavington, and mix teaching with open discussion, videos and hands-on practice. The course ends with a one-week internship in a learning institution.
Each Saturday has a teaching session followed by discussion or practical work.
Hands-on experience caring for children with special needs in a structured learning environment.
Participants who attend and take part in every session, complete the internship and demonstrate their practical skills receive a Certificate in Autism Caregiving and Support, recognised by Bloom Garden Schools.
