AutistConnect aims to bring together autistic people and medical and
behavioral experts under the umbrella of a social network. The primary
user for our product is a child newly diagnosed with autism. He/she is
most likely to suffer from the following constraints:
1. The nearest clinic is far away from his city of residence.
2. The accessible clinic is not affordable.
3. Autism is stigmatized and family does not agree for treatment due to
the fear of ostracisation from the society. AutismConnect is aimed at
providing the following services:
1. A social networking platform for autists, their friends and family
members and medical professionals.
2. Online training portals which would comprise of both a preliminary
(automated) and advanced training and would serve as a place for the
autists to learn about the rules of the neurotypical world while
concurrently getting regular feedback from medical experts.
3. A practice arena where autists can identify their strengths by
performing a myriad of tasks with would mimic the real world as closely
as possible. This would help them to choose a path of life that is most
conducive to their strengths.
