Sylvia Funk, of PATHWAYS for NeuroEducational Development, is a member of the International Christian Association of Neurodevelopmentalists (ICAN). Her personal journey with an ICAN Neurodevelopmentalist began 16 years ago as a parent of a special needs child. As she saw her son improve and heard of the improvement so many other parents were experiencing Sylvia became convinced that this field needed to be made more available to struggling parents. Knowing that this field had a long history, beginning a number of decades ago with the work of Doctor Temple Faye, Carl Delacato, Glenn Doman and others, Sylvia was determined to make this her life's work. Her previous work experience as a Registered Nurse provided her with the necessary prerequisite to begin the involved multi-level training process to become certified in this approach.
