Sociocultural transformations generated by the coexistence of children, adolescents and young people with autistic Spectrum disorders

This is a qualitatite-quantitative research on inclusive education in the schools of El Salvador. The administration of presidents Mauricio Funes (2009-2014) and Salvador Sanchez (2014-2019), have included a series of awareness workshops at the Ministerio de Educacion de El Salvador (Ministry of Education of El Salvador), hereon referred to as (MINED). Said workshops have approached inclusive education for students with autism and have included associations such as Angelitos, the El Salvador Autism Association (ASA, given its Spanish acronym), Music Time as well as those institutions that are part of the Health System such as the Salvadorean Institute of Integral Rehabilitation (ISRI, given its Spanish acronym) and Hospital Bloom. However, there is no inter-institutional program to control the educational processes of students with Autism. In spite of the institutional limitations, those students within the Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), their parents, health professionals, governmental institutions and associations, have been able to build a culture of Inclusive Education, which must be strengthened by a state program in El Salvador.
