10. Summary of thesis results:

The topic is based on research on the current status of access to support resources for families with autistic children in remote areas: Van Giang - Hung Yen. The research results show that autistic children in remote areas such as Van Giang - Hung Yen have limited access to intervention facilities or more precisely, there are no specialized intervention facilities that meet the needs of intervention and support for families in the research area and neighboring areas. From the results of the research, we will move towards implementing a support model for the subject with the aim of assisting families with autistic children in the process of integrating into the community.

The results of the study are shown in the implementation of the "integration support class" model, which is a bridge for families with children in the research area to access other support systems: kindergartens, specialized facilities... At the same time, it is also a useful support resource for families with autistic children in the research area and neighboring localities.

11. Practical application:

Over time the application operates, the model“Integration Support Class”has directly intervened for 15 children in the research area and neighboring areas of all ages and levels. Through the assessment of the children's condition and the feedback from parents, it shows that this is a useful model, meeting the needs and wishes of parents far from the center. Moreover, maintaining and developing the model is also a practical and meaningful activity for the research subjects.

12. Further research directions:

The effective implementation and operation of the "Integration Support Class" model is a premise for the desire to expand and develop support services to be able to provide more assistance to autistic children and their families.
