Autism Lanyard Hong Kong

TALOS Foundation a Non-Governmental Organization in Hong Kong specializing on Autism Lanyard Hong Kong initiative (ALHK) aims at helping autistic people with non-verbal communication to identify themselves easily in the community and can interact with people around them with confidence. Our mission is to build an inclusive and supportive environment for the autistic community in Hong Kong, which is what TALOS Foundation is all about. We, at TALOS Foundation, have our latest endeavor in this process ahead of us to improve the quality of life of people on the spectrum.

The Autism Lanyard HK project aims at introducing positive changes to the nature of public services in Hong Kong to create a more understanding and also accommodating society for autistic individuals in Hong Kong. The necklace, itself, depicts a soft but explicit symbol of backing, suggesting to others that by putting on the necklace, the wearer might be that bearer of Autism and may thus need of understanding or help in specific circumstances.

Individuals or families of a member with autism, or their carers can be provided the Autism Lanyard for free from specific distribution points of different community centres in Hong Kong. The lanyards are crafted in such a way as to be comfortable yet are also able to be easily noticed. They may carry the tokens prominently against the neck-straps or unobtrusively on the clothing.

The Autism Lanyard - a tangible symbol of awareness, understanding, and enhanced interactions - hold great potential for improving our relationships.
