Before obtaining clinical training from our center, according to WC's mother, WC was recommended to study at special education primary school by a helping professional.

 

WC has been receiving individualised target-oriented clinical training once per week since 2012. After training for half year at our center, WC began to  

  1. talk and sustain conversation with others
