Lakshmi was diagnosed with autism in her childhood. Two and a half years ago, she came to ASTHA looking to develop her social and behavioural skills.

Tech Mahindra, along with one of its partners, NGO-ASTHA, implements the programme ARISE+ for children with special needs, and the results have been remarkable.

ARISE+ is a programme by the Tech Mahindra Foundation that works for children with disabilities. The Foundation’s partner, NGO-ASTHA, has helped many children develop their social and behavioural skills, just like Lakshmi, who got an early intervention and education towards Autism.

The special educator has helped Lakshmi work on her social and emotional behaviour, tactile sensation, and time and money management, among other skills.
