In his presidential address at the inauguration of the National Conference on Autism, 2024, on Wednesday, Dr P Sathyanarayanan, Pro Chancellor (Academics), SRM Institute of Science and Technology, said SRM College of Occupational Therapy, since its inception in 1996, had provided treatment to more than 5,000 people through the occupational therapy programme.
He said that people with autism had to travel to different places to have access to services and avail treatment from doctors and therapists. With a view to providing all such services under a single roof, they had established the occupational therapy centre at SRM IST in Kattankulathur.
