Description: The Beijing Institute for Autist Children was founded in 1993 by a parent of an autist child and is China's first non-governmental educational organization to serve children with autism.

Autism is a developmental disability that impairs sensory input causing problems in social behavior, communication and learning. It hinders establishment of personal relationships, and interaction in community life. Most, but not all, individuals with autism have some degree of mental retardation. No single biological cause has been found but a significant number of medical disorders occur in conjunction with autism. Current research supports the fact that autism is a disorder of early brain development.
