On June 22 (Sunday), Aran Foundation conducted a Public Awareness Video Shoot focused on bringing real parental voices to the forefront of discussions about autism, therapy access, and systemic challenges. Held with the support of Aran volunteers, the session invited parents to speak openly about their experiences—ranging from early signs of developmental delays to the first time their child was exposed to gadgets. One major focus was on the issues in regulation and transparency in private therapy and OT (occupational therapy) centers, which often leads to confusion, inconsistent services, and financial pressure on families. Parents also highlighted the need for greater government involvement—both in awareness campaigns and in offering affordable, standardized therapy options for children with special needs.
The shoot created a safe space for families to share their personal journeys, frustrations, and hopes. Aran foundation raised concerns about early gadget exposure, lack of support in rural or low-income areas, and the emotional toll of navigating unclear therapy pathways. Volunteers facilitated the discussion, ensuring that each story captured not only the challenges but also the resilience and strength of these families. The resulting video aims to educate the public, urge policymakers to act, and help other parents feel less alone in their journey. Aran Foundation remains committed to amplifying community voices and pushing for inclusive, transparent, and accountable care systems for every child.
