The Cause

The Benedetta D'Intino Center was founded in 1994 from the dream of Cristina Mondadori in memory of her granddaughter Benedetta, who passed away prematurely. Thanks to a multidisciplinary team made up of 20 professionals, every year it assists more than 300 children and young people with severe communication disabilities and psychological distress together with their families.

The Center operates through two sectors of clinical intervention: Augmentative Alternative Communication (AAC), which deals with children with complex communication needs and which also includes a specific communication program for autism, and Psychotherapy, which follows children and families who need psychological support to deal with trauma or uncomfortable situations.
