Aim/ objectives / title

How does an organisation helping children with special needs assist in the development of their children?

Children with special needs experience a hard time developing compared with normal children. Some organisations take care of them, and they play crucial roles in ensuring these children develop. The research will investigate the roles played by these organisations in helping children develop especially autistic children.

From the research topic and objectives, the research methodology will be qualitative. According to Goundar, the qualitative research approach involves questioning people in a specific situation. Information will be gotten from workers since it is unethical to interview children or young people under the age of 18. The research will be based on the information acquired from the workers and previous studies on children with special needs.
