The Children’s Specialty Clinic of San Luis Valley (CSCSLV) serves children with complex behavioral and sensory needs affecting typical development and learning outcomes in the school setting in Alamosa, Saguache and Rio Grande counties of the San Luis Valley, regardless of race, insurance, socioeconomic status or educational background.
Through community fundraising, independent donations and grant money, we hope to:
- create competitive and appropriate salaried positions for consistent staffing with this population
- hire translator services for families where English is a second language
- purchase assessment and treatment materials
- reimbursement applications for gas, housing, advocates and other needs for parents getting their children diagnosed outside of the San Luis Valley
- purchase high-tech alternative and augmentative communication devices for children with communication and language challenges
- provide free or low-cost outpatient therapy services multiple times a week
Children's Specialty Clinic of the San Luis Valley strives to be the nexus for children in the San Luis Valley with complex medical and behavioral needs, offering a space for specialty providers to care for children where they are - geographically as well as emotionally and financially.
Children’s Specialty Clinic of San Luis Valley (CSCSLV) is serving children with complex behavioral and sensory needs related to developmental disabilities including autism and in-utero substance exposure, regardless of race, insurance, socioeconomic status or educational background. CSCSLV is creating a novel multidisciplinary, intensive pediatric and medical therapy clinic to improve the health, education and community disparities that children with moderate to severe behavior disabilities, and their families, are experiencing as a result of their disability. CSCSLV provides access to services including Elopement Safe Outdoor Therapy space, Applied Behavioral Analysis, rental space for independent clinicians and medical providers to service children with complex medical needs, and parent-led support groups for children with developmental and acquired disabilities. The organization is staffed by its volunteer board members and executive director dedicated to integrating user centered design based on trauma-informed and evidence based practices to provide therapy and medical services for children with disabilities. CSCSLV recognizes the need for integrated and closely coordinated services for this population.
