Every child is born with passion, power, and curiosity. The challenge is to develop academic curriculum and settings to suit and challenge the child, not vice versa. For over a decade, we have helped US, Canadian, and UK non-profit foundations, schools, and health departments stay abreast of emerging innovation, and apply technology from other market sectors - such as US military and avionics - to support autistic, adhd, and other gifted children in a variety of educational settings.
We support non-profit boards, C-suite, and public sector agencies with leadership and financial advisory. We provide:
Noise sensitivity is common in both autistic and ADHD/ ADD children, and in extreme cases of loud ambient noise - machinery, traffic noise, or loud music or television - is actually painful. Causes distress, or "autistic meltdowns.' But when we consider this phenomena, is it really much different for a child to need silence to 'think' or be at peace, than it is for adults in sensitive occupations - surgery, US military command centers, veterinary hospitals - to need absolute silence? Our early work includes redesign of noise-cancelling pilot cockpit helmets for autistic children, to give them greater freedom, comfort, and confidence in schools and other environments.
