Founded in 2017, we provide lifelong support for autistic individuals and their families—from diagnosis through adulthood and end-of-life care. As a specialist adult autism boarding and forever-care home in Malaysia, we support individuals with long-term, high-support and aggressive needs through structured living. Through specialised developmental programmes, vocational training, employment pathways, and secure boarding, we empower individuals to live with greater independence, dignity, and quality of life—building a compassionate, inclusive future for autistic families across the lifespan.


Founded in 2017, Thoughtful Minds Academy began with small-group weekday programmes aimed at helping individuals with special needs reach their full potential. As demand grew, families expressed the need for extended care and structured accommodations. In response, the Academy established its Vocational Training Centre and Boarding School in late 2021.
By 2025, Thoughtful Minds Academy had evolved into Malaysia’s first long-term care centre dedicated to supporting the lifelong needs of autistic individuals and their families.
Thoughtful Minds Academy is a specialist adult autism boarding and forever-care home in Malaysia, supporting individuals who require long-term structured living, including aggressive and high-support needs.
