Oroshya Autism is a School

In addition to being a nonprofit initiative, the center operates as a school where parents contribute a modest fee to help cover essential costs related to their child’s daily care, learning materials, and support services.

These contributions are kept intentionally affordable to ensure that families from different backgrounds can access quality services. The primary purpose of the school is not profit, but sustainability allowing the center to maintain consistent programs, qualified staff, and a safe learning environment.
Through this model, Oroshya Autism ensures that children receive continuous, personalized support while promoting dignity, responsibility, and long-term impact for both families and the community.
