CYAN Clinic Ltd hasn't added a story.
Youth with ADHD and other neurodevelopmental disorders benefit from multiple interventions that bridge the gap between home, school, and their health care team. Without early intervention, they have a higher risk of injury, school failure, substance use, and mental illness. Some multidisciplinary ADHD clinics on the mainland are funded by government agencies or health authorities, others are private clinics charging hundreds to thousands of dollars for access to assessment, counselling, coaching, and other support services.
Dr. Michelle Francis, a Nanaimo paediatrician, has established the Complex Youth ADHD Nanaimo (CYAN) Clinic specifically to help youth with complex ADHD and neurodevelopmental disorders access much-needed local assessment and intervention services. The CYAN Clinic team wants to provide care without placing undue financial burden on families. However, we have turned away by health and government agencies who have cited a lack of money and resources.
So we are asking the community for help.
All funds raised through this campaign will go directly to support those youth and families that have barriers to accessing services. It will provide direct family support and enable educational opportunities for teachers, students, parents, and youth. It will offset the cost of individual or group counselling, psychology assessments, social skills training, tutoring, and more. Your financial contribution will allow youth with neurodevelopmental disorders including ADHD to receive the inclusive care they need to find their path to fulfillment, allowing them to give back to the community that provided them with the opportunity to thrive.
