To begin, you simply visit any Pinnacle Blooms Network centre, share your family's circumstances with the team, and ask about SEVA support — our staff will sensitively guide you through what's available, whether that's subsidised sessions, fee relief, or scholarship-supported therapy. There is no shame in asking, and no judgement; this is built into who we are. Every conversation is private and handled with dignity.\n\n## How to apply, step by step\n1. **Reach out** — call your nearest Pinnacle centre or [book a first visit online](https://www.pinnacleblooms.org/enroll-autism-speech-aba-therapies-india).
