California BrainWaves is a nonprofit organization based in San Leandro, CA, dedicated to increasing support for neurodiversity. They aim to provide housing, employment, education, research, medical care, specialized training, legal aid, and community systems for individuals with brain and developmental disabilities and their loved ones. Their vision is to develop therapeutic campuses that promote live, work, learn, and play environments, preventing family separations and prioritizing the well-being of staff, caregivers, and neurotypical siblings.
California BrainWaves offers a range of programs and services, including an onsite school for ages 2-22 that focuses on child-led learning through play and a blend of educational models. They also provide a residential treatment program for individuals of all ages who require specialized care, as well as 24/7 onsite care for infants to seniors. Additionally, they have plans for an all-in-one medical facility, apartment complexes with various amenities, and a caregiver retreat called Caregiver's Cove. Through their comprehensive approach, California BrainWaves aims to destigmatize neurodiversity and create a supportive community for individuals with brain and developmental disabilities.
