Sangarsh… Sah Harsh: Nehal’s Journey on the Autism Spectrum
Written by her mother Seema, a story of art, resilience, and employment.
"Inclusion is not asking a person to adapt to our world; it is expanding our world to hold everyone."
Published by Sangati Foundation, "Sangarsh… Sah Harsh" (Struggle with Joy) documents the journey of Nehal, an artist and working woman who navigates life on the autism spectrum.
Written with immense warmth and honesty by her mother Seema, the book provides a beacon of guidance for families across India raising neurodivergent children.
Through her vibrant paintings and career accomplishments, Nehal proves that with early support, clear accommodations, and unconditional acceptance, individuals on the spectrum can thrive in creative and professional roles.
Sangati continues to distribute copies of this book to schools, caregiver groups, and community libraries to dismantle stigmas around neurodiversity.
