Program Overview

This internship offers practical experience at a leading Center for Autism Therapy & Multidisciplinary Child Development in Jaipur, India. A remote/virtual option is also available for those who prefer to work from home.

The placement provides exposure to Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA), Sensory Integration Therapy, Hippotherapy, Psychotherapy, and Speech Therapy. Responsibilities may include reviewing patient files, assisting with therapy reports and research activities, observing therapy sessions, and supporting therapists under supervision. This allows interns to deepen their knowledge in their chosen field while gaining insight into child development and autism care.
