As a non-profit  corporation, C4SN's purpose will be to provide FINANCIAL R
ESOURCESstarting with the children within our special needs community. Specifically children ages 2-16 that
 "Slip Through the Cracks". Children that don't meet the criteria to qualify for Regional Center Services and/or receive sufficient benefits through insurance companies. Those benefits that would allow families to access and provide recommended and necessary therapies to assist their children to become all that they can be. 
SO.... WHAT can you do? You can CONTRIBUTE! You can be an INDIVIDUAL or a CORPORATE SPONSOR!
OUR SPECIAL NEEDS CHILDREN NEED YOU !
