What Makes Us Different Also Makes Us Special

The Story of Reach

The founder of Reach Centre for Autism, Ms. Lata Iyer, is a special educator with experience for over 2 decades, and also the proud parent of an Autistic individual, Anushka. While working with and trying to understand the world of her daughter through her perspective, Ms Iyer realized the need for establishing a centre that connects autistic individuals and their parents with a team of experts. The key objective of this initiative is to ensure that individuals on the spectrum achieve functional independence and have access to a support network.

Frequently Asked Questions

About Autism

Autism, or Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), is a neurodevelopmental condition that affects communication and behaviour. It affects individuals differently and to varying degrees.

Early signs may include limited eye contact, delayed speech or non-verbal communication, repetitive behaviours, lack of interest in peer interaction, and hypo /hyper - sensitivity to sounds or textures. It is important to consult a specialist in case any of the above symptoms are observed.

Autism is not a disease and has no “cure.” Early intervention, therapy and support can significantly improve communication and behaviour. However, medication may be recommended for certain symptoms or co-morbidities
