Our Philosophy
Our philosophy toward autism is rooted in balanced ambition, tailored support and optimal inclusion. We believe:
- Autism is a bell curve
Symptoms and severity shift with intervention or the lack thereof.
have shown to benefit students on the autism spectrum leading to worldwide movements advocating for children with ASD now attending mainstream schools.
- Support is critical
for managing stressors, behaviours, academic goals & helping students access social and educational opportunities & accommodations.

School Inclusion Program: Alag Par Ek
18 Low Income Schools
We work in direct intervention across 18 schools, supporting 300+ students daily through direct 1:1 support, in 100+ classrooms to help every child with autism meet their individual learning goals. We do this through our Tier 1 of work, where we train Social Work Fellows to work at Mumbai’s low income schools.
Advocacy and Awareness
From university workshops to parent sessions and nationwide events, our formal and informal advocacy spans all of India. We build voice and visibility for autism in every space that matters reaching over 1 lac people per year.
