Pact has not responded at all within 28 calendar days regarding my enquiry about a program it has implemented which is Coaching Boys Into Men from Futures Without Violence with regard to autism tailoring.
Since some people with autism may disagree with certain messages in such programs, such tailoring can make these programs even more effective by catering for a special audience and can even enhance autism awareness.
