“MindCAP gives educators additional tools that help students become successful.”

“My daughter came to MINDCAP after an experience similar to a brain injury, which stunted her thought processes and her sense of self-worth. When she began sessions, she was resistant and uncooperative, and being a stubborn teenager, she wasn't always nice. I cannot say enough about how amazing MINDCAP was for her! In addition to the Feuerstein Method, her instructors showed so much patience, persistence, professionalism, compassion, and encouragement in every session. Gradually, my daughter's resistance turned into resilience, and her intellectual and emotional maturity blossomed. It was incredible to watch her start from a place of poor communication skills and low self-esteem and then grow to welcome challenges and celebrate victories, renewing a sense of "I can." She is doing so much better today, and she actually wants to go back!”
- G.B., mother of a teenage daughter
“I strongly believe that if physicians know that this type of program exists to address the cognitive and behavioral needs of the patients, they will be much more likely to perform developmental screening. Indiana has a dismal rate of timely developmental screening and I know we can do better. My goal is that all children are physically, mentally and spiritually healthy and educated to their highest potential. MindCAP is a critical resource we need to begin to ensure all of Allen County's children are ready to embrace their academic potential.”
- D.A. McMahan, MD, Health Commissioner, Fort Wayne-Allen County Department of Health
