: The TP Southern Odisha Distribution Limited (TPSODL) conducted a two-day workshop on autism-early identification and care under the Pay Autention Initiative (PAI).
Over 215 participants, including Anganwadi workers (AWWs), ASHAs and WSHG members attended the workshop in four sessions held in the block offices of Rangeilunda and Chhatrapur.
The workshop was conducted in collaboration with Government institutions/ offices of the Block Development Officer (BDO), Child Development Project Officer (CDPO), BPM-Odisha Livelihood Mission, BLC - Mission Shakti and expert trainers from Kerala-based NGO CADRRE.
The workshop aimed to empower parents and caregivers to become primary therapists of autistic children by raising awareness and providing a better understanding of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD).
The initiative also aimed to build the capacity of Anganwadi workers, health staff, schoolteachers, NGOs, and social workers to become the primary identification and support champions for early intervention in children and young adults with autism. The project is designed around Tata Power's core objective of "Empowering with Care," with a focus on enabling mentoring support, skilling, and providing meaningful livelihood for people with autism.
