Autism Ekasi is a Non-Profit organization committed to educating and assisting families with Autistic children. Autism affects children of every race, ethnic group and socioeconomic status. Our children are frequently confronted with late diagnosis or misdiagnosis. Autism Support is important to the development of children. Our goal is to help the families to identify the red flags of autism early. Our people lack resources, and the available facilities are too expensive for these families. Children are hidden from society because of the stigma attached, especially our black communities. We are faced with requests from mothers who cannot even afford to get transport to have their children diagnosed. We hope our centre will be in a position to afford these parents assistance and work together with social workers. Our dream is to create a place where support is available, and parents are able to share their challenges. A place where we could all just be ourselves without having to explain why we are the way we are. This brings me to forming a Network (Network for Autism), here parents are able to register and be part of forming a mapping which will ease the stress of "what happens now". Many parents are not sure where and what to do when faced with challenges. That is why we have so many children being hidden away from society because of the stigma and discrimination they face. What can we do to improve the lives of the lives of our "ANGELS"?

Takalani children's home was established in May 1988 by Rev P. L. Van Langeveld together with the Reformed Church Synod Soutpansberg. The home started with only 11 children in total. Rev Van Langeveld was serving as a spiritual Pastor at Siloam Hospital (His service was to give pastoral care to the patients at Siloam Hospital). He came up with a vision of establishing a home for the abandoned, abused and orphaned children. He then approached the local Reformed churches under Synod Soutpansberg. The Synod welcomed the idea to establish a home for those children and appointed the board of directors to manage the home. The home was built near Siloam Hospital since most children were found wandering there, though children from different areas are also considered due to the need. The hospital social worker, the late Mr. Landela played a very crucial role in ensuring proper legal processes were adhered to. TCH accommodates a maximum of 80 children and currently, the home has 40 girls and 30 boys.
