Understanding the reason behind a child’s developmental and mental health difficulties can be challenging for parents. Every child is unique and may not fit into the typical profile which is described in literature. Delay in understanding the child’s profile and reaching the right diagnosis can delay the child accessing the right interventions.

Children with Developmental Challenges are present all over the world. Unfortunately, lack of trained personnel, lack of awareness in health, educational staff, and the community results in extended periods of suffering for the child and family.

Early identification leads to Early Intervention and Improved outcome for Children with Developmental Challenges. Unfortunately, there is also a lack of adequate resources to provide interventions for affected children in less developed countries.
