The Children's HOPE Center

The Children's HOPE Center Founded to help children reach the optimum of their potential, The Children’s HOPE Center IIt is with great hope for children that we introduce the HOPE Center.

The Integrative HOPE Center of Arizona is an international integrative medical started by Dr. Shawn K. Centers, Homeopathic & Integrated Physician. Chair of the American Board of Integrative Pediatrics, founding president of the American Academy of Pediatric Osteopathy, and director of medical education for AutismOne.
“Hope” has many meanings. It is not merely a wish that things will happen--it is an abiding certainty that things will progress and get better..It is the certainty we have for patients who come to the HOPE Center. The acronym “HOPE” accurately represents the Children’s HOPE Center: Holistic/ Homeopathic Osteopathic, Pediatric, Essential care.
“Holistic” recognizes that we must treat the whole child: body, mind, and spirit.
“Osteopathic” affirms that our practice is guided and directed by the core tenets of osteopathy founded over 100 years ago, where “osteo” refers to structure, and “pathos” refers to suffering or deepest need. Osteopathy is the science and philosophy that addresses the structure of one’s life as it relates to their deepest need.
“Pediatric” focuses on helping the child--from birth to young adult--reach their potential. We recognize that children are not small adults. Their anatomy, physiology, and thought processes are different. By knowing and addressing those differences, we can help their body perform optimally.
“Essential” indicates that including treatments that remove obstructions to healing as well as adding interventions that bring restorative effects (measures which are not routinely found in other medical practices) will fill in the missing pieces children need for all therapies and bodily systems to heal and work in harmony.

Leucovorin & the HOPE Protocol

Helping Children with Autism and Cerebral Folate Deficiency (CFD)

⸻

📰 What’s New
• The U.S. Government and HHS have raised new cautions about medicines like Tylenol (acetaminophen) and their possible impact on children with autism.
• At The Hope Center, we run genetic testing to understand how each child may respond to medicines and treatments.

⸻

✅ Leucovorin Recognized
• Robert F. Kennedy Jr., founder of Children’s Health Defense and in the past collaborated with Dr. Centers, announced the FDA will officially recognize Leucovorin as a treatment for Cerebral Folate Deficiency (CFD).
• CFD is often linked with autism symptoms, such as language delays and behavioral challenges.
• Dr. Centers has over 15 years of experience using Leucovorin Calcium safely and effectively in children.

⸻

🍎 Why Diet Matters
• For Leucovorin to work best, certain dietary changes are essential:
• ❌ Remove milk and casein proteins (these can block folate receptors).
• ✅ Follow tailored nutrition plans as part of the HOPE Protocol.

⸻

🧪 Proper Testing Is Key
• Each child should be carefully tested before starting treatment.
• Success depends on experienced prescribing plus integration into the full HOPE Protocol, which combines:
• Medical care
• Nutritional guidance
• Developmental supports

⸻

🌟 Our Commitment

At The Hope Center, our goal is to provide personalized, evidence-informed care that helps children achieve meaningful progress.
