Autism Society of Albania was founded in June 2025, in Tirana, by Msc. Anxhela Kaziu, clinical psychologist. The association aims to promote awareness and support for people on the autism spectrum in Albania.
At our center, a group of dedicated and professionally trained specialists work with passion and high sensitivity to support every child and family on their developmental journey. We believe that every individual on the autism spectrum has unique potential and deserves the opportunity to achieve their best abilities, in an inclusive, understanding and supportive environment.
Our focus is on providing quality therapeutic services, personalized according to the needs of each child, including developmental, psychological and speech therapy. Through contemporary methods and scientific approaches, we aim to improve communication, social interaction and everyday skills of children on the autism spectrum.
But our work does not stop at therapy. We provide ongoing emotional and advisory support to parents, helping them better understand the therapeutic process, cope with daily challenges and build a strong relationship with their children. Our association also organizes trainings, seminars and awareness campaigns for the public, with the aim of promoting the acceptance and social inclusion of people with autism in all spheres of life.
Close cooperation with families is the foundation of our work, because we believe that sustainable progress is achieved only through partnership, understanding and love. We work every day to guarantee the highest quality development and a bright future for our children, building a more just, open and inclusive society for all.
Our center consists of a team of specialized professionals, dedicated to supporting children and their families.

Director of the Autism Society of Albania
Founder Anxhela Kaziu
After several years as the Director of the ASA Center and at the same time a developmental therapist for children with various developmental disorders, I felt it was necessary to establish a genuine association. This initiative was born as a response to the difficult reality faced by many Albanian families, who, due to economic conditions, cannot afford the costs of therapy for their children. During my work, I have met parents who face numerous challenges every day – from the inability to attend professional therapy, to the non-inclusion of their children in kindergarten or the community. They often shared with me their stories with pain, the doors that have been closed to them, and the feeling of loneliness in the face of such a great challenge. It was precisely this reality that pushed me to take a bigger step: to create a structure that not only offers therapy, but also becomes a voice for these children and support for their families. Autism does not only affect the child — it affects the entire family and the surrounding community. It is a difficult journey that requires continuous support, social inclusion and deep understanding.
The mission of the Autism Society of Albania is to create a comprehensive center:
– That provides professional therapy for children;
– That trains parents to follow and support children’s development on an ongoing basis;
– That builds bridges of cooperation and empathy in the community. We believe that only if all these areas are worked on simultaneously, the effect of therapy can be profound and long-lasting.
