While autism spectrum disorders are becoming increasingly common, parents of children with these conditions get little help to deal with their difficulties. However, India now has its own national helpline to provide families of people with autism, where they can get counselling and guidance about various aspects of the condition for free. The helpline, 9100 181 181, is operated by a leading network of autism therapy centres Pinnacle Blooms Network.
Parents can use this helpline to reach out to doctors and therapists to talk about their concerns regarding their children’s physical, developmental and health issues. It could also help them get information and advice about inclusive education, government schemes and psycho-social issues. Moreover, teachers and schools can also use it to better serve students with special needs.
The therapies offered by the specialists associated with the network include Speech Therapy, Occupational Therapy, ABA/ Behavioural Therapy, Special Education, Hydrotherapy, Yoga Therapy, Dance Therapy and Music Therapy, among others. These can help in situations like sensorial breakdowns. Attention is also given to impart skills in the kids that will help them become financially independent, or even to have their own family, in future.
Pinnacle Blooms Network is a leading Autism Therapy Centres Network, whose core purpose is to empower crores of kids/ people with neurological, psychological disorders to be self-sufficient, to be part of mainstream society, to stand a chance at life, career, family, and bring smiles into their families.
“With an experience of conducting 7,00,000+ exclusive one on one autism therapy services across our network of centres pan-India over the past half-decade time, we have launched this Free National Autism Helpline,” said Dr. Sreeja Reddy-Saripalli, Founder and Chief Strategist of Pinnacle Blooms Network. She hopes to see the lives of crores of families across the change by making use of these authentic, professional services.
