About Us Ishanya Foundation
At Ishanya Foundation, we believe that every child deserves a world that understands, accepts, and empowers them. What began in 2014 with a single child has now grown into a trusted community supporting 50+ children and families across India.
Founded by parents who truly understand the journey of raising a child with autism, Ishanya stands today as a center of hope, compassion, and specialized care.
Our Journey
Our story began with Ishanya Special School, a place created to provide individualized autism education, therapy, and a nurturing environment tailored to each child’s needs. Over the past 10+ years, we have grown into a joyful learning community supported by experienced special educators, therapists, and caregivers.
As our children progressed, their needs evolved — and so did we. Families needed a safe, structured space where their children could continue learning, living, and growing beyond the classroom. This led to the creation of Ishanya Autism Village, Pune — one of India’s first residential village concepts for individuals with autism.
Our Values
Vision
Our vision is to create a compassionate and inclusive community where individuals with autism can learn, live, and thrive with dignity. We aim to build a world that embraces neurodiversity, encourages independence, and ensures that every child and adult with autism feels understood, valued, and empowered. We aspire to set new benchmarks in autism care and residential support, offering environments where growth is continuous and possibilities are endless. Our vision is to build a future where every individual receives the respect, opportunity, and support they truly deserve.
Vision
Our mission is to provide individualized autism education and therapy through evidence-based practices, while creating safe, nurturing, and child-friendly environments that support learning, growth, and emotional well-being. We are committed to building India’s leading autism residential village, offering 24×7 care, structured programs, and life-skills training that prepare individuals for independent living. We strive to empower families through guidance and collaboration, and to promote acceptance, inclusion, and meaningful opportunities for individuals with autism in society.
