Institute for Exceptional Children

Institute for Exceptional Children We have conducted intensive teacher-training programmes on child mental health for 200 MCGB as well as mainstream school teachers.

Established since 1979, IEC provides psycho-diagnostic, psycho-educational, psycho-social counselling and psychiatric services to children, adolescents, and their families. In the past we have completed projects for UNICEF to identify scholastic backwardness among 1800 children studying in schools run by the Municipal Corporation of Greater Bombay (MCGB) and provided counselling and remedial educational interventions for them. Through the financial support of our donors, we have even provided our services to children and families from lower income groups. Since January, 2017, we have partnered with The Live Love Laugh Foundation to implement their 'You are NOT Alone' School Program for students and teachers to promote awareness of depression and prevent suicide. At IEC, we believe that each individual has a right to psychological wellbeing and hence, should not be denied service due to genuine inability to pay. We believe in promoting the cause of ‘Mental Health for All’. Therefore, we use a sliding scale for fee structure and offer our services to children, adolescents and families of middle as well as low socio-economic backgrounds.

This year’s World No To***co Day theme, “Unmasking the Appeal: Exposing Industry Tactics on To***co and Ni****ne Products,” hit close to home.

Because when six-year-olds are tasting gutka, we are no longer talking about isolated habits, we are confronting a public health crisis engineered by design.

At IEC, we believe awareness isn’t just about information, it’s about connection.

Thank you to all who joined us with heart, honesty, and hope. From open conversations to grounding practices, each moment became a step toward reclaiming breath, health, and choice.

Together, we’re unmasking the appeal, and imagining a tobacco-free future.

Families are where we first learn how to feel, how to ask for support, how to be heard, how to rest.

This , Team IEC wishes every kind of family the space to care.. gently, daily, and with intention.

Mental health starts at home.
And care doesn’t need to be loud to be real.

Celebrating World Mental Health Day was a heartwarming journey as students from S.A. Public School expressed their vision of a 'happy school' through the art of drawing. Each masterpiece reflected a safe and loving space where they feel supported to learn and grow.

Together, we embraced the beauty of creativity and the importance of mental well-being in our educational community. Our mental health day celebration extended beyond the classroom, as we engaged with our team and community members in various meaningful ways. Stay tuned for more highlights on how we collectively honoured this important day! 🌈✏️
