Aims/Objectives/Mission : Our goal at Shraddha is to fight autism and mental disabilities with love and creativity. Our special employees are not deficient, just different. They can learn if you can teach. They can relate to you if you can relate to them. They can touch your heart if you open it to them. Shraddha was started in 1997 with a singular mission, of making autistic people self-confident through their own creative ability. These young adults have finished training at SPJ Sadhana school for the autistic impairment in simple job skills, such as, to name a few, sticking, plastering, moulding, pasting, pressing and folding. Here at Shraddha, they are given workshop training in making ecofriendly items, such as different types of gift bags from recycled paper, patraval items ? plates and bowls, agarbati stands, trendy jewellery beaded on safety pins, rangolis, colourful lantern bags, hand painted envelopes, Zen garden. Our specialty is the ecofriendly leaf plate which is quite a hit with our clients. We have developed a flexible method that involves intense training which is not easy to begin with. These young minds have their own sense of the environment which is different from the ones we operate in. Our staff work with them on a one to one basis. With continuous practice they gradually get adjusted to the training and become alive with enthusiasm. They are then eager to be promoted to group working. The aim is to slowly help them blossom into their own and connecting with them at their level.
