Mohammed Al Emadi, director-general and board member of DAC, praised the initiative of the Harlem Globetrotters.

“On behalf of Dubai Autism Centre, I thank and appreciate the support extended by Goodwill Ambassadors, the Harlem Globetrotters, who have been unwavering in their support. This support will go a long way in helping us in our efforts to providing specialist services for children with autism and those who care for them,” Al Emadi said.
