India is home to an estimated 179 million people with intellectual and developmental disabilities. Non-inclusion across various life stages and settings — from education to employment opportunities, classrooms to residential societies  —  greatly impacts their well-being and life outcomes. 

The communities around them need to be informed, enabling, and inclusive. The Sarvodya Collective works with the people around neurodivergent individuals — educators, peers, siblings, communities — to build a world where everyone genuinely belongs.

Inclusion starts with all of us: the teacher who learns to adapt her classroom; the sibling who finally finds a space to talk about what home is really like; the young person who decides to speak up and become an ally instead of a bystander.
