Martin Family Testimonial

Jake was a beautiful baby, unusually so, who had a rough birth, low initial apgars and trouble breastfeeding.

Smith Family Testimonial
TESTIMONIALS | Typical Children

Smith Family Testimonial

NACD benefited my family when I was a child and now as a parent. Over 43 years ago, my brother was diagnosed with Phenylketonuria (PKU), and my parents turned to NACD for support during his early childhood. Fast forward to today, I found myself needing assistance with my son. We began seeking ways to help…

The Murphy Family’s experience with NACD has come at three major crossroads in our life. The first was when our oldest son was 18 years old and sustained a traumatic brain injury and shattered pelvis in a car accident.

Brain Injury | TESTIMONIALS | Typical Children

Tomar Family Testimonial

“Your son may not survive the night”, doctors told us soon after our son, Baran, our firstborn, was born in 2009. Baran had suffered moderate hypoxic ischemia at birth.

Down Syndrome | TESTIMONIALS

Acevedo Family Testimonial

We began our journey at NACD after finding a school system unable to help our daughter with Down syndrome to make progress and keep learning.

Hale Family Testimonial

Our oldest had gotten sick at 7yo with something that was different from other sicknesses. We have no idea what it was, but what we did know is that it changed the way her brain functioned – it was VERY obvious. She developed some behaviors that were completely out of character and unexplained. My background…

Nine years ago, I gave birth to a precious baby girl. Her Daddy, two year old sister Claire, and I were so excited to welcome her into our family.
