In this exclusive ‘Expert Speaks Series’, Chitra will be in conversation with various experts who closely work with Special Needs Children and their families. These experts could be doctors, therapists, legal professionals, vocational trainers or even family members who have successfully secured the future for a loved one. The aim is to bring their knowledge and vast experience to you so that you can find the solutions and guidance you need to live a happier life.

In this episode, RJ Mamata Sehgal - AIR Rainbow, is in a conversation with our CEO, Chitra Iyer, where she speaks about what is Autism and her thoughts on how accepting people are of Autistic children today. She shared about the achievements of three young adults Varun, Nehal and Usaid who are huge inspirations to their peers and many more.

This exclusive episode was broadcast LIVE in Hindi on the occasion of International Women's Day.

For some of you who might not know, Chitra Iyer, is a Special Needs Parent herself and a Trustee with Forum for Autism. Her 22 year old son, Shravan, has Autism, Epilepsy and Cerebral Palsy. Professionally, she is a Financial Coach and the CEO of MFA, a 16-year-old organization that specializes in Goal-based Investing and has been supporting the cause of Autism for more than a decade now.

We would like to emphasize here that 'Special Needs' covers any kind of intellectual or physical challenge/disability and not just Autism. The challenges faced and future planning required for it, are quite similar.

Do listen and share it with all the Special Needs Families and other groups you know.
