November's S.M.A.R.T. newsletter was all about the vestibular system 🧠

This system governs our movement, balance, and self awareness and is deeply connected to our ability to remain attentive and stay regulated.

Innovative. Individualized. Comprehensive.

For over 35 years, ACTG has provided thousands of children and adults with innovative, individualized and comprehensive brain-centered programs and services to maximize their development and help them reach their full potential.

Our founders, Bob and Kathy DeBoer, were inspired to seek integrated, brain-based interventions when their daughter was born with a significant brain injury. They dedicated themselves to finding ways to help her reach her fullest potential. Over time, she learned to speak, walk, and interact with those around her. Bob and Kathy began sharing what they learned with parents of similarly disabled children, and in 1983, officially founded A Chance To Grow in Northeast Minneapolis as a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, dedicated to the application of the latest research on neuro-physical development of the brain.

ACTG grew from a small agency providing home-based services into a multi-service organization offering clinical and educational interventions to help individuals with a wide range of challenges, from those with significant brain injury to those who struggle to learn.

Over time, our services grew to include Outpatient and Contract School-Based Speech and Occupational Therapy, Audiology, Optometry, Home-Based PCA services, Neurofeedback and Audio-Visual Entrainment, the Minnesota Learning Resource Center and the nationally-recognized S.M.A.R.T. program, and the Turnquist Child Enrichment Center.
