Mitra for life
Who we are
We are committed to improving the quality of life of children and young adults with intellectual and neurodevelopmental challenges. We help build and nurture social relationships in their lives that make them happier, independent and more confident.
We are a non-profit organisation supported by a growing team of volunteers, passionate about making a difference in the autism and special needs community.
Increased Awareness

Advocacy
Social Inclusion
Our Mission/Goals
We strive to increase awareness amongst neurotypicals about autism and its related challenges. We believe the best way to do this is by bringing both groups together, where they can learn from and inspire each other.
Self-advocacy plays a huge role in helping people on the autism spectrum deal with day-to-day situations as well as larger life decisions. We guide our participants on ways they can advocate for themselves, that help them navigate their lives with more ease and confidence.
Every day, we hope the work we do brings the autistic community a step closer to the rest of society. We envision a future where people with an Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) are successfully and seamlessly integrated into the society and its institutions - schools, colleges, workplaces and social communities.
