Locals Objections To Autism Centre

It is sad to know that some just don't understand the good things about it, and end up not opening their eyes to the needed. The Tralee centre would be the fifth residential unit in the country, and the chief executive of the society has said many more such centres would be needed to cater for the dramatic increase in the number of children with autism over the past decade.
