A society that cares the interdependence and freedom of people of every ability as valuable and enriching, and seeks to provide equal opportunities for all.
our strategy

We follow two major strategies

for enhancing the perceived value of the social roles of a person with Autism, as suggested by SRV, (a) enhancement of the social image of person with autism in the eyes of others, and (b) enhancement of their competencies, in the widest sense of the term, so that image enhancement and competency enhancement form a positive feedback loop. A person with autism is generally competencyimpaired, so is highly at risk of suffering image-impairment. A person who is impaired in image is likely to be responded to by others in ways that delimit or reduce his competency further.

Our Domains of Action

We carry out our role-valorizing actions

in the image-enhancement or competency-enhancement domains on four levels:

  1. individual level of persons with autism (or intellectual disabilities)
  2. Individual's primary social systems, i.e., the family level
  3. the intermediate social level, such as, neighbourhood, community services the person with autism can receive
  4. the larger society and for social rights of persons with autism.

We try to arrange physical and social conditions in personal level, primary and intermediate social systems that are likely to enhance positive perceptions of persons with autism and enhance their competency. Apart from our institutional services, we involve parents to participate in various social programs that help others to have a positive view of their children and that help their children to acquire skills needed to participate positively in the community. Thus, it is more likely that children will be well-integrated into the community. We try to follow age-appropriate approach towards children /adults with autism and try to avoid things which reinforce their role-stereotype as "eternal children", such as, referring to adults as children, engaging adults in children's activities, and so on.
