Pragati Towards Livelihood is a vocational skill training center for neurodivergent young adults aged 15 and above.

​

Established in July 2017, Pragati follows a Person-Centered Approach, providing training in Creative Arts, Horticulture, Digital Literacy, Independent Living Skills, and Employability for young adults with neurodevelopmental disabilities.

​

Rooted in structured processes, Pragati focuses on building participants’ strengths, helping them develop self-advocacy, follow processes, and acquire job-readiness skills. The center offers a simulated work environment where participants gain practical skills to transition into:

​

• Inclusive organizations

• Self-employment with support from family and peers

• Assisted social enterprises alongside other adults with Autism, with guidance from a support group

​

Pragati Towards Livelihood continues to support its participants even after they transition to their respective workplace roles, offering opportunities for upskilling, reskilling, and ongoing coping support.
