About
Founded in 2015, the foundation focuses on bridging systemic support gaps by shifting societal mindsets from mere awareness to active acceptance and inclusion. We believe in each person's unique strengths and abilities. We serve our community with the hope that every individual with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) has the opportunity to lead a balanced, self-sufficient, and meaningful life.
Autism Care Foundation was formally registered as an NPO on 18th May 2022. The organisation is dedicated to supporting individuals on the Autism Spectrum, differently-abled persons, and vulnerable women.
Our core focus is on shifting community perspectives, reducing societal stigma, and advocating for early diagnostic interventions. Social Upliftment: Providing critical social work interventions, family counselling, and practical support to empower caregivers and vulnerable groups. Our vision is a society where a person is seen, valued, and included. Our mission is to empower individuals on the spectrum with the resources they need to thrive in society while supporting their families and caregivers. Our values are acceptance, compassion, and empowerment.Â

Current Needs / Wish List
As social workers, we need to visit families at home to give proper care and guidance. Right now, we do not have a reliable car to reach these homes safely and quickly. We also need a dependable passenger van. Many members of our autism community miss out on group activities because we lack transport. A safe van will let us host day outings and help people join social events
