Nuestra Misión

Empoderamos familias impactadas por el autismo para lograr independencia y garantizar la mejor calidad de vida para nuestros niños de Intercare.

Somos un servicio de gestión familiar basado en evidencia, con terapistas enfocados en la familia. Nuestro trabajo muestra que se ayuda a niños y adultos jóvenes diagnosticados con autismo y otros desórdenes relacionados.

Nuestra terapia tiene un enfoque donde se valora la compasión, comunicación y colaboración, reconociendo y celebrando la individualidad de cada uno de nuestros niños Intercare, al mismo tiempo que aplicamos tratamientos de terapia aprobados a través del tiempo.
