As a world-wide disability service based in Wyndmoor, Pennsylvania, The Institute for the Achievement of Human Potential is a family-based, drug-free organization that teaches parents how to grow their children’s brains. The Institutes, a group of nonprofit institutes founded by Glenn Doman in 1955, is internationally known for its pioneering work in child brain development and for its programs to help brain-injured children achieve wellness and well children achieve excellence.
The Institutes Work With Brain-Injured Children
Historically, children diagnosed with developmental delay, cerebral palsy, autism, Trisomy 21 (Down syndrome), Attention Deficit Disorder, hyperactivity, learning problems, dyslexia, and a host of other symptomatic diagnoses have been considered hopeless.
The objective of The Institutes is to take special needs children, however severely hurt, and help them to achieve normality physically, intellectually, physiologically and socially.
The majority of children achieve one of these goals, and many children achieve two of these goals. Some children achieve all of these goals, and some children achieve none of these goals.
