The Soul

Founder - Late Mrs. Nidhi Behal

(13-7-1984 - 23-3-2021)

Care for Autism (CFA) has its roots embedded in the care and concern of a mother who wanted comprehensive treatment for her child with Autism under one roof. Late Mrs. Nidhi Behal, through this organization, gifted her child, Sayyam, and many other children like him the space where they can learn to live and love life. Care for Autism was her dream and desire. She wanted an institute in Jalandhar, Punjab, for children with special needs that embraces all their requirements. The foundation stone of CFA was laid on 5th August 2020. The short period she knew she was left with after she was diagnosed with fourth-stage cancer surprisingly energized her to put her heart and soul into the starting of CFA.

The Body

Mr. Raghu Behal - Managing Director

It is a privilege for me to run an institute that aims, attempts and works to make life of special children better and independent. I being the parent of special child very deeply understand the need of special children and a pain parent feels when he faces the dearth of adequate qualified professionals and other rehabilitative services. The shoe has pinched me and therefore I empathize with the pain of parents and attempt my level best to provide complete and comprehensive services to our children in the best possible ways.

Challenges in the journey of life are not uncommon, what makes you outstanding is the zeal to fight them with energy and efforts.

 

 In my professional career of examining, and diagnosing neurodevelopmental disorders I experienced helplessness when people asked me about a comprehensive unit that could cater to all the needs of ASD, ADHD and Learning/ Intellectual Disability. After diagnosis when parents are told about the findings of child and recommended that there is a need for remedial training there first request would be to guide them further where to take their children to avail therapeutic and training needs? I had no satisfactory answer to this question as within the city as well state, no doubt therapeutic centers are available but the facilities available are in pieces not as a whole or in comprehensive manner.
