Hopes and Dreams center for Autism is a school born from both the struggles and love of a family all too familiar with both the happiness and stress of having a beautiful soul with autism. This is a nonprofit school so far supported solely by friends and family donations for all special needs kids who don’t fit in the main stream competitive and often soulless education system. We take any kid who comes in irrespective of their ability to pay, we also outreach and bring kids to the school with our own transportation. The school uses state of the art proven curriculum based on STAR program and in collaboration with the district 112 (Carver county, MN) special needs faculty. The curriculum is also integrated with K-12 Tamil Nadu's State Board Syllabus but is taught uniquely to each child based on their individual needs to truly take cultivate each one's special talents and abilities. The school also offers psychotherapy, behavior intervention, physical and speech therapies as per the child’s need. We also use several evidence based methodology like Zones of regulation, movement and dance therapy, but perhaps the most important quality that Hopes and Dreams center can provide for your child, is a home. A place where your child will not feel like an

alien or an outcast, but rather simply and utterly human. A human who can not only have their own hopes and dreams, but can also fulfill them.
