HINT is a web application for parents of children with conditions like palsy, Asperger's, Down's etc. The aim is to bring parents of such specially-abled children together to share their experiences, resources, tips etc. with others in the community.
Users logging on to the website have access to:
- Blogs and other content posted by various other users sharing their experiences, stories, resources etc. with comments as well.
- Location service for trained doctors and clinics: Since a persistent issue with parents is the lack of availability of capable neurologists, physiotherapists, counsellors etc., we provide information regarding the best doctors available near your location. The data is sourced from parents logging on to the site as well as our own resources.
- Location service for stores selling specialized equipment: Often, raising a child with special needs requires equipment like prosthetics, nebulizers, walkers etc. to help them function and lead normative lives. Stores for these are usually not easy to locate, which is why we provide locations for such stores nearest to users.
- Location service for schools: Children with special needs require dedicated instructors and a special curriculum and pedagogy - we help in locating such schools in users' neighborhoods.
- Location service for caretakes and daycare centres: Raising special needs children is an emotionally and physically taxing process, and is especially difficult for working parents. Hence, information about trained and experienced caretakers and daycare centres/creches around users is provided.
- Hiring and other opportunities listed for Neurodivergent students.
We aim to make HINT a safe and resourceful community for parents of specially abled children, so they can find all the help they require for making their and their children's lives better and more convenient.
