International Clients
Part of our mission statement is to have a global impact on human development. We encourage families from around the world to seek out the NACD and find out what our programs have to offer. Although many International NACD clients travel to the National Office and chapter locations for their evaluations, we understand that many others cannot.
Therefore, we offer video/telephone evaluations for clients, whereby we instruct the family in the filming of a videotape, which is sent to the National Office. A trained Neurodevelopmentalist views the tape and, through a telephone consultation with the family, conducts an evaluation.
A Neurodevelopmental Home Program is written based on the evaluation and instructions in implementing the home program are video or audio taped and sent to the family. For detailed information on Neurodevelopmental Home Programs, we recommend reading the What Is NACD? page. For the purpose of evaluation, individuals with more significant needs such as those with brain injuries, various syndromes, developmental delays, autism, PDD, etc. need to consult with the National office to find out if a video/telephone evaluation is feasible. Any family interested in receiving an NACD program will be required to purchase and listen to the Guide to Child Development and Education—Miracles of Child Development CDs which provide a basic understanding of the NACD approach to child development and education. After listening to the discs and completing the note outline, please call the National Office and request an application package. The package contents must be completed in their entirety and returned to the National Office prior to scheduling an appointment. (International clients should indicate on the application form if they desire a video/telephone evaluation. The family will be sent instructions on how to make an evaluation video.)
Families will be contacted regarding an appointment after the application package has been received. Families may secure an initial evaluation appointment with a deposit of $500.00. The balance is due at the time of the appointment (see fee schedule).
International Video/Telephone evaluations and re-evaluations are scheduled only through the National Office.
Deposits will be refunded only if cancellations are made four weeks prior to the scheduled evaluation date.
