This case study engages with the journey of Ummeed Child Development Center, a non-profit based in Mumbai, working in the field of developmental disabilities amongst children. Part of its story is closely wound up with the story of Vibha Krishnamurthy, a developmental paediatrician who, along with her team at Ummeed, has put in a pioneering effort to wean developmental disabilities away from the shadows of public and private conversations and to bring a holistic lens to awareness about them, interventions for them, and including others into mainstreaming the cause and seeking solutions for it. Remarkably, it has made what is often a solitary and anxious concern for parents into a collective and caring process providing a chance for parents themselves to participate in the development of their child. The result has been that Ummeed has become a point of reference when it comes to childhood disabilities. This case-study, in tracing Ummeed’s journey, also unfolds what it means to build and sustain a culture on which such a practice can stand: a culture that must deal with multiple interventions through multiple types of talent all the while holding true to what it means to care for a child. As far as case studies go, this case study aims to speak not only to learners and practitioners of management but also to parents of children with developmental disabilities, so that they too might find an echo of their concerns, and a hope for tomorrow; as well as to all of us as a broader society that contributes to the experiences of people with disabilities and their families.
