Autism holds many parents back from taking their kids to #concerts for fear that their #impulsive, #excited, totally #expressive #special darlings might disrupt the concert!!
At #PRAGNYA, the "Social Immersion" is an initiative where we try to acculturate our Autism families (not just the child) to the neurotypical world. As part of this initiative, we have started the PRAGNYA concert series, where we invite local Bay Area Classical Music exponents to come and perform for our families.
