The mission of Kids Inclusive Education Society, both in India and internationally, is to help children, especially those who are at risk or have special needs, to be accepted and successful in their schools and communities. We promote the philosophy of inclusion – that all children develop best when their experiences take place in a natural environment with peers who are reflective of the larger society. Thus we establish inclusive education and intervention programs where children both with and without work and play together. In addition we train teachers, therapists, parents, and community members in strategies for and the value of inclusion. We conduct research on ways to provide child intervention services-especially in the areas of autism, cross-cultural education, sensory integration, and inclusive education for all children. We conduct developmental screenings for community children so that disabilities or delays may be detected and addressed as early in life as possible to promote success. And we conduct outreach and education programs to both share the work of people concerned with inclusive education and understanding of the benefits of creating inclusive global communities where all members are supported and valued. This work we undertake in the knowledge that in a socially just society, all children are included in the life of their community – and that a community includes all.
