Psychosocial Support Models for Parents of Children with Autism: Global Insights and Implications for Vietnam
Ha Nguyen Thi
Abstract
This article presents a comprehensive review of psychosocial support models for parents of children with
Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) that have been implemented internationally, with the aim of proposing
contextually appropriate adaptations for Vietnam. A systematic review of scientific literature was conducted
using both international and national databases, focusing on models that incorporate intervention, group
therapy, skills training, and peer support. The findings reveal a diversity of psychosocial support approaches
and emphasize the importance of interdisciplinary, community-based models that are culturally responsive. In
Vietnam, current models remain fragmented and lack a standardized framework for evaluating long-term
effectiveness. This paper proposes several principles for developing effective support models, including
interdisciplinary integration, active parental participation, the involvement of master trainers, and the
establishment of community support networks.
