About Us
Our Mission
At NEAC we believe everyone should have an opportunity to discover and access the tools and resources best suited for their learning and development.
Our assessments aim to provide context around an individual’s abilities, strengths, and struggles in order to develop appropriate strategies that will aid their academic pursuits.
Helping You Build A Brighter Future
Our Story
After many years working with children in various settings, Barbara R. Anderson, R.N., B.A., and Susan D’Souza, M.A., Dip.C.S., felt that there was a need to provide better services to individuals with learning challenges. They brought together a team of professionals that felt the same way, and in 1995 NEAC was founded.
In 1998, NEAC expanded its services to post-secondary students in collaboration with disability centres of post-secondary education institutions.
Since then, we have grown to provide services for children and adults of all ages and backgrounds.
In 2017, NEAC transitioned to new leadership under the direction of Pinny Stern MA and Dr. Grunberger C.Psych in an effort to expand the vital services NEAC offers to the community.
In 2018, NEAC underwent a significant renovation and expansion of its central Mississauga hub. To support the increased need, NEAC opened a satellite clinic centrally located in Toronto.
Currently, NEAC continues to maintain and develop relationships with a diverse range of partners including community practitioners and educational institutions.
