Kalpanadevi B
Founder
Kalpana’s journey of service began during her college days when she engaged with children at a special needs school in Chennai through various art forms. After graduating with a Bachelor's degree in Physics and an MBA, she received a profound impetus upon her son’s autism diagnosis.
Driven by this, she tirelessly pursued numerous workshops and seminars, delving deep into autism. With her accrued expertise, Kalpana established an organization in Chennai dedicated to offering comprehensive therapies, special education, and diverse activities for underprivileged children—all under one roof.
Seeking further insights into autism and aspiring to adopt a research-oriented approach, she joined an organization in Tiruvannamalai. There, she orchestrated nature-based therapeutic interventions for children with special needs.
Empowered by her experiences and committed to social causes, Kalpana resolved to create a center focused on the empowerment and independence of young adults on the autism spectrum and with other disabilities.
Recently, she attained a Bachelor's degree in Special Education, specializing in autism, and has commenced her endeavors within this organization. Kalpana’s remarkable journey has been singularly inspired by her 19-year-old autistic son, propelling her to make substantial contributions to the welfare of individuals with disabilities.
