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.

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.
