Online Teaching Program

We designed a curriculum for online teaching that would do justice to the requirements of our team members and engage, empower and invigorate them.

Our language and communication programmes are aimed at preparing our adults for communicating with people apart from their parents, engaging with family members and being connected with the world around them.

Alternative and Augmentative Communication

We underwent training with Vidya Sagar Special Education Centre, Chennai in 2017. We adapted the learnings for people with autism and brought out the AAC book.

Talktime

Make the adult comfortable and aware of events around him/her, empower communication skills and build language.

Phone Program

We realized that being able to stay connected with family members and loved ones is a critical part of empowering happiness and thus the phone program came in.

Bakery

Together Foundation runs an FSSAI certified bakery and offers wonderful opportunities to train, earn and learn in such an exciting area. Our teaching programmes in the bakery are run by co-workers with inputs from a consultant chef.

The Shop

Our adults make a variety of fresh snacks to offer customers and learn a lot from interacting with them. The shop retails bakery products along with paper plates and paper bags. They also participate in sales and exhibitions.
