Regional Government attended ceremony marking World Autism Awareness Day
The Regional Secretary for Education, Culture and Sport, Sofia Ribeiro, and the Regional Secretary for Health and Social Security, Mónica Seidi, attended the session marking World Autism Awareness Day on Tuesday at Praça Velha in Angra do Heroísmo. The initiative was organised by parents of children with Autism Spectrum Disorder, teachers, PAV - Projeto de Apoio à Vida Association and APIT - Amigos da Pediatria da Ilha Terceira Association. Mónica Seidi praised the efforts of all the professionals in the Regional Health Service who work in this area, acknowledging that, despite the daily efforts, there is still much to be done. "There are gaps in our response, but I would like to say a word to everyone, particularly to the early intervention technical teams who do a commendable job in accompanying these children and their families. There are already 17 early intervention technical teams in the Region, although the response to these situations is not the same on all islands," she said. Asked about the number of child psychiatrists in the Region, the Secretary for Health and Social Security explained that this area faces shortages. "In the short term, we expect to launch a tender procedure for the Santo Espírito Hospital of Terceira Island, which currently has two service providers in this area," she said. The Regional Secretary for Education, Culture and Sport, Sofia Ribeiro, who also attended the event, highlighted the efforts undertaken by the teams in these areas. In this regard, she noted that "the follow-up system for these children in schools has been changed with the implementation of the inclusive education system," which provides for "a preliminary assessment that includes differentiated measures for students." This work involves various departments of the Regional Government of the Azores.

Regional Government promotes "Merit Measure" in Sport
The Regional Secretariat for Education, Culture and Sport, through the Regional Directorate for Sport (DRD), is promoting the "Merit Measure" for the second consecutive year as part of the TOP Club Programme of the Portuguese Institute of Sport and Youth (IPDJ), in close collaboration with this national body. The "Merit Measure" aims to reward good practices in the management of sports clubs, recognising and disseminating the daily work of clubs in favour of sports and social development. Applications for the 2024 edition of the "Merit Measure" are open until April 29 and can be made via the following link: https://clubetop.ipdj.gov.pt/ProgramaClubeTOP/Medida.aspx?MeasurePanel=3. All the information on the awards, model, rules and deadlines is also available here. All sports clubs and associations as well as associations promoting sports (APD) clubs promoting the practice of sports that are registered in the National Registry of Sports Federations and Clubs (RNFDC) are eligible to apply for the regional awards of the "Merit Measure" in various categories. Other entities involved in sports, duly registered, providing sports services that do not fall under the categories above may also apply for this measure. This Clube Top initiative, which has been extended to the Azores since 2023, follows the signing of a memorandum of understanding between the DRD and IPDJ, together with the Regional Directorate of the Autonomous Region of Madeira, with the aim of extending Clube Top to the autonomous regions, extending this programme even further nationwide. This partnership also intends to strengthen relations and establish synergies between the parties to promote the presence and integration of the Azores in national matters so that we can all be better prepared for the current and future challenges the Region and the country face.
