Com.Paixão Kids

Implementing partner:

Every child deserves to live with dignity, care, and access to opportunities. For this reason, Instituto Justiça (IJ) is proud to support Com.Paixão Kids, an organization that expands access to quality special education for children and adolescents on the autism spectrum in situations of social vulnerability.

The initiative aims to enroll these children at Centro Lumi, a specialized therapeutic and educational school located in São Paulo, which serves approximately 130 autistic students, using recognized approaches such as the TEACCH Program (Treatment and Education of Autistic and related Communication-handicapped Children) and the ABA methodology (Applied Behavior Analysis). Among them, 25 are supported free of charge through Com.Paixão Kids, based on socioeconomic criteria.

As part of this collective effort, IJ annually sponsors two children, ensuring they have full access to the program and to the interdisciplinary services provided by the school.

We believe that every step toward equity is valuable—and that investing in lives, even one by one, is planting transformation where it matters most.
