Episode Description

In this episode, we have with us Dr. Vibha Krishnamurthy, a Developmental Paediatrician and an expert on Child Disability. She is an advisor to the Government of India, WHO and UNICEF. But most of us know her as the founder of Ummeed Child Development Centre, one of the leading NGO's of the country which is working relentlessly to make the inclusion of Children with Developmental Disabilities a visible agenda for India.

Listen to her in conversation with Chitra Iyer, where she shares her insights on:
  1. The future financial security of Children with Disabilities.
  2. Why every Special Need Family should have a coach or a mentor in their life.
  3. Along with some negative effect of COVID-19, how there has been a positive impact and change in the lives of Families with Special Needs Children.
For some of you who might not know, Chitra Iyer is a Special Needs Parent herself and also a Trustee with Forum for Autism. Her 21 year old son, Shravan, has Autism, Epilepsy and Cerebral Palsy.

Professionally, she is a Financial Coach and the CEO of MFA, a 15-year-old organization that specializes in Goal-based Investing and has been supporting the cause of Autism for more than a decade now. She has been helping hundreds of families with her guidance, talks, webinars etc.

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

Do listen and share it with all the special needs families and other groups you know. To get in touch with us: Book a meeting instantly Or Write to us on - teammfa@myfinad.in
