Collective Impact

Supporting Programs & Guiding Families

NvCAN does not directly facilitate autism assessments. If needed, please consult with a healthcare professional.

Addressing a Need for Nevada Families

Our Collaborative Approach

In over 20 years of work, NvCAN collective members have provided affordable neurodevelopment care to hundreds of patients coming from across Northern Nevada, including rural counties. In addition, NvCAN collaborators have helped train over 200 interdisciplinary professionals in standardized autism assessments and provided financial support for professionals from diverse clinical backgrounds who serve individuals with neurodevelopmental disorders.

Pananaw ng Komunidad

“Sa tulong ng mapagbigay na mga donasyon, tinitiyak ng NvCAN na maa-access ng mga pamilya sa buong Nevada ang pangangalagang kailangan ng kanilang mga anak para umunlad."

Jan Marson si Dr
Co-Founder, NvCAN

"Upang makuha ng mga bata at pamilya ang pangangalaga na kailangan nila, kailangang magkaroon ng talagang malakas na pakikipagtulungan sa buong sistema ng pangangalaga—at sa iba't ibang propesyon."
