Summary of relevant work: 

We are a non-profit organization based in Mumbai, India, set up with the objective of helping children with developmental disabilities like Cerebral Palsy, Mental Retardation, Learning Disability, Autism, and Attention Deficit Disorder. As an organization with close to 50 professionals We work in four main areas:

1. Create and run a centre of excellence. Our centre in Parel, Mumbai offers a complete range of clinical services (from pediatric assessments to therapies), as well as many interdisciplinary programs like our Early Intervention Center.

2. Building capacity. We reach out to thousands of children through outreach programs in low-income schools and communities. We run training programmes for teachers and staff of NGOs working with low income groups and children with disabilities so they can benefit the children in their communities.

3. Advocacy. We work with individual children and their families to ensure that they know their rights and work to enroll them in inclusive schools and other institutions. Senior members of our staff are part of various committees and institutions that influence policy.

4. Research. We partner with other countries and organizations to support research in the field of public health and policy with regards to child development.
