In Barueri, Shopping Tamboré hosted the “Autismo no Parque” project, an itinerant installation using art and interactivity to raise awareness about Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). Additionally, Via Verde Shopping provided sensory experiences for visually impaired students, allowing them to explore dinosaur replicas through touch. By September 2026, the focus expanded to psychosocial support within health centers. In Belford Roxo, the Rehabilitation Center for Neuroatypical Children (CERCNA) held a multidisciplinary event addressing the needs of children with conditions such as ASD, ADHD, and Down Syndrome.
