Hello there, I really sympathize with you as I know all about the lack of services for autistic people here in KSA as I have struggled in Riyadh for years with 2 autistic children.
Many times over many years I have tried to contact the Jeddah centre and more recently the Riyadh centre. But it seems that they are not serious about the support they say they offer to parents of autistic children as either the phone doesn’t work, there is no reply to emails or to letters or faxes. What does that say about their dedication and serious support for autistic individuals?
Thanks pamela for your helpful comments and to explain the practical situation in Saudi Arabia’s Autism organizations.Since 6 yrs.I’ve been struggling but not a single hope.
Your response gave me a hope.
God bless you.

Dear Kalam,
My brother has an autistic child. He managed to find a reasonable place in Jeddah. However he has been transferred to Riyadh from his company.
His mobile number is 050-494-8218. You may call him and get the number of the school/teacher so that you can get help. In the mean time; if you know any place in Riyadh who can help us; we will highly appreciate that.
Regards,
Asif.
