Krishna Aradhana was 9 years old when she joined Swabodini, her communication skills were not age appropriate. She could not communicate like other neuro typical children; she would not address people properly.
After coming to Swabodhini she has shown improvements in multiple parameters, she has adapted well to training in school. She reproduces at home what she was taught in school. Slowly she became more disciplined as well. Because of calendar activity in school, she was able to identify the day, date, month and the year Earlier she would not interact with others as she had been isolated till then. Once she joined Swabodhini her approach with others improved significantly.
She showed drastic improvement in one year’s time. She developed the capacity to understand and execute our instructions.
Now she is able to execute Activities of Daily Living (ADLs) independently. Now she is able to comprehend and respond to “WH” questions and the concept of good touch and bad touch etc; she consistently applies what she has learnt in school. She is able to adapt her communication style based on the environment and age of the person she is interacting with.
With consistent Occupational Therapy, Life skills training, regular academics and extracurricular activities, she is now independent on several fronts. She is able to operate the computer independently.
I would like to thank the management, teachers and staff of Swabodhini on behalf of my family
