Summary

This project will improve the physical, cognitive, socio-emotional and language capabilities of children who experience various developmental challenges due to neurological and genetic conditions. Within 1 year, aim to empower at least 20 children through optimal brain learning based on the principles of neuroplasticity. Experienced practitioners in neural education will give monthly series of 10 lessons to each child, including those whose families cannot afford the full cost of this method.

Challenge

According to various sources, there are currently over 25 000 children with special needs in Bulgarian schools. Autistic kids in Bulgaria number up to 140 000, whereas kids with Cerebral Palsy number anywhere between 3000 and 20000. Children who face various learning challenges related to a neurological/genetic condition are mostly treated through traditional physiotherapy, speech therapy, ergotherapy. Yet, many parents don't see holistic improvement - physical, socio-emotional, cognitive.

Solution

Modern neuroscience demonstrates the human brain can grow new neural connections throughout a person's lifetime. The brain can overcome immense limitations earlier in life (first 5-7 yrs) as it is developing very fast. Since 2023, we have provided access to neuroplasticity lessons by trained practitioners who work with kids with autism, cerebral palsy, ADHD, genetic conditions. The parents we serve note major improvements in their children compared to the effect of traditional therapies.

Long-Term Impact

We impact the holistic development - for life - of at least 20 children. We influence directly their brain - the command center of the body. The new neural connections formed as a result of the lessons impact the children's physical, socio-emotional, cognitive and verbal development as well as their overall health. They become more independence, which is what makes their families proud, happier and more capable to live up to their family and social roles effectively.
