Home / LRH Steering Committee for Autism

It was established to enhance services provided for the children with Autism and other neuro developmental disorders. We believe that INTER SECTORAL COLLABORATION is important when we   consider a child’s life as a whole.

Our vision is to bring up such a child who will be independent and one day will be an asset to the society.

Our mission is to develop a state of the art Interventional centre for Autism at LRH which will function as the benchmark centre for whole of Sri Lanka.
