Neurodivergent individuals will be recognized for their talents and contributions to their community, be viewed in a positive light, and receive the services that will empower them to communicate effectively and live independent, satisfying lives.

Mission

Our mission is to provide research-based information to parents regarding neurodivergence and reading delays, and offer a multi-tiered comprehensive evaluation strategy followed by a custom-tailored intervention that capitalizes on children’s strengths while addressing their areas of need.  

Our consultative services include:

  the quality of your life as well as your child’s
• Connecting you with local schools and resources
• Educating you on the ins and outs of legal issues related to receiving services,
  funding, and implementing a curricular approach tailored to your children’s needs.

Our Belief

All children deserve recognition for their strengths and their unique areas of growth. They should then receive substantive and systematic teaching that empowers them cognitively, emotionally, and socially. Similarly, all parents should be empowered by access to an objective report of their children’s abilities and the opportunity to discuss in earnest relevant strategies and approaches that improve parent-child relationships at home.

Our Values

• Each child deserves the opportunity to be heard.
• Each child deserves the opportunity to receive instruction that suits them best.

  about their children’s abilities and achievements in school.
