USP Of Our Institute:

We have no minimum IQ requirement. Even the most profoundly challenged child is admitted to our Institute.
Almost 40% of our students are from the lower socio economic strata (15% are at or below poverty line). But no one gets denied help due to his or her financial condition.
The youngest child coming to us for therapy is 3 months old and the oldest lady in our Vocational Centre is 70 years old.
We have 250 very dedicated and hard working staff, with a very low turn over ratio. Average duration that the staff spends at the Institute is 15 yrs.
All facilities for a mentally challenged person are available on one campus, which is a great boon for parents of a handicapped child.
Our teacher-training institute was the first in India.
The Aditya Birla Sheltered Workshop and Rehabilitation Centre set up in 2002 was the first Sheltered Workshop of its kind. Till date it is the largest in India.
In 1948 we introduced integrated dance & drama as a form of therapeutic activity. Many of our children participated in a stage show organised by The Teachers Academy and even the main character of Cinderella was played by our child.
In 1948 we also introduced ‘Sports’ for our children with all the items and activities performed in regular schools.
In appreciation of the pioneering work done by our Institute the Government gave us a grant in aid in 1965 and are supporting us till date.
In 2003 our children participated and won several prizes at the international event Abiolympics – ability Olympics, when it was held in India for the first time, and we have participated in every subsequent event held every 4 years.
