The World Health organisation estimates that 1 in 100 children has autism. This statistic is only likely to grow more dire as time progresses.

We studied a number of global models in our quest to arrive at an optimal solution to ensure a productive and dignified life for the neurodiverse, even after their immediate family is no longer around. Each model had its share of pluses and minuses. There was no quick fix.

We had to create our own model – the Akshadhaa Assisted Living Community. We had a significant advantage in that each of the founding partners has been personally associated with Akshadhaa Foundation, which, over the course of the last decade has undertaken sterling work towards caring, educating and providing employment to the neurodiverse.

So, we envisioned a community where the neurodiverse, their parents, healthcare providers, special educators, students, and corporates, among others, could come together, while being productive in their individual capacities.

To that end, we have planned a campus where special needs individuals and parents stay independently but are in regular contact.

At Akshadhaa Assisted Living, our founding and executing core team boasts over 200 years of collective experience across diverse fields. Our team includes a seasoned business leader with multinational experience, a Doctorate Professor from a leading institution, a top tier IT professional, an expert civil construction valuer, a seasoned banking administration professional, and an experienced manager who has led diverse teams in remote locations within the petrochemical industry. Importantly, all core team members are parents of children with neuro-developmental challenges. This carefully curated leadership mix fosters the adoption of cutting-edge technology, superior construction standards and meticulous financial management.
