Where healing meets growth
A multidisciplinary centre for children with special needs — therapy, professional training, and an inclusive school.
The first conversation costs nothing — including if the answer turns out to be that we are not the right service for your child.

Therapy and training can be delivered anywhere in the world online. The countries picked out above are not the limit of that — they are where work has already happened, or where an IBAO credential is already recognised. Every country left in stone is available; hover or focus one and it says so.
97 countries carry records in IBAO’s public certification directory. 86 of them are shown in champagne here; the other 11 are The Project Hope’s own delivery markets, so they take their service colour instead — select IBAO above to see all 97 at once. IBAO states it has candidates and certificants in 119 countries; the directory is the verifiable part, and eleven further listed territories are too small to render as areas at this scale. A portable credential is not an IBAO office.

Our vision
Help should not depend on what a family can pay
A number of places here are funded rather than charged for — therapy or schooling, whichever the child needs, awarded on need. Alongside that: free camps, free advice, and a first conversation that costs nothing.
- 1 in 31children identified with autism — common, not rare
- Age 2when it can be identified — most wait years longer
- 2×the minimum wage, for a month of therapy at the needed intensity
- 21%of families who stopped had actually met their goals
Lend a hand
Every funded place still costs someone
Someone still does the work, and a good deal of it is done by volunteers — at camps, in the classroom, in old age homes, and alongside adults whose services stopped at eighteen.
