The Project Proposal Application for ‘Caring
for Autism in Sri Lanka’ includes;
I.
Background and justification of the project:
Guiding light Association is an organization which was established in the
year 2010 in Colombo, Sri Lanka in order to enhance the quality of communal
work as well as look in to the development and the welfare of the
underprivileged citizens of the rural areas around Sri Lanka. Our non-profit
organization involves a body of dedicated social workers within the island and
is highly dedicated to transforming the status and the standing of the social
work profession in which the ultimate benefit is given to those who are in
need.
Autism is not a disease and it occurs across a large range of cognitive
abilities, language skills and on a basic life span and affects several number
of children. Social problems that are connected with autism are a few
highlighted characteristics of the disorder. Individuals who have high IQ’s as
well as substantial language skills also struggle with a wide range of
interpersonal skills when entering adulthood.
During the developing stage, children pick up play and social skills
quite naturally. Children who have autism need to be taught skills in a very
specific learning environment in order to be bale to adapt to the social world
as they grow older. It is evident that in a country such as Sri Lanka, where
autism is not highly recognized, it is important to make people aware of the
right methods that can be adapted in order to help these children with special
needs.
The focus of this particular project is to incorporate an “Autism child
friendly teaching environment” model into all the programming aspects of a basic
education and to create a surrounding of compassion and acceptance for children
with autism. The project established by Guiding light association focuses on
creating a training module for young people that could aid in coaching these
children with special needs with the final outcome of forming a long term
student- mentor relationships.
II.
Objectives of the project:
- Promote optimal development and learning of children and youth with Autism Spectrum Disorder and those with intellectual disabilities.

Proposal for Annually uniforms for 25 children
Why we need to give uniforms? Majority is coming very bad
economical level and parents are unable to supply cloths for five days. As
children are getting dirty very soon, parents do not send the child to
Montessori next day, due to lack of cloths. But if we provide uniforms, we
could able to avoid the absence and parents could be relaxed mentally.
