Ananda Niketan

A village project to live peaceful life for parents of persons with Autism. To solve the biggest worry of “What After Us?”

Background

Most persons with autism require lifelong support in significant aspects of their daily life such as self-care, financial or in their vocation and employment. With extended family systems in India fast disappearing, society provides no viable alternative support mechanisms for persons with autism when they lose their caregivers and are on their own. Specialist residential centres, that can provide this support when parents are no longer there or are unwell, are barely existent. The worry of “What after us?” haunts most parents.

Here lies the need of separate and safe Residential facilities. Many studies emphasized on the importance of the learning environment for autistic children, but none have focused on the idea of inclusive and universal design in houses which also plays a vital role in their happy and safe living.

Hence BHABNA has conceived the project ANANDA NIKETAN, an exclusive project for community living which will be gated community starting with 15 independent bungalows (may expand in future) for families living with Autism and a concept of lifelong care for your child and towards this purpose has acquired ~10 acres of land beside Raghunathpur-Malandighi road in Kanksa block, Paschim Bardhaman District.
