Empowering the Next Generation

We are being REACTIVE not PROACTIVE when it comes to children's health. 

623k babies are on psychiatric drugs in the United States, and over 7.2 children in the U.S. are on prescription drugs for issues related to anxiety, depression and ADHD. 

52% of college students reported feeling depressed or anxious, a clear indication that we are not being proactive

Spectrum disorders have more than doubled since early 2000's, more than 15% of children have a developmental disability, most of which are NOT covered by health insurance.
