Development & Status
Is Brilliant Minds currently open?
Not yet. Brilliant Minds is currently in development, and this website reflects the plan for the future center. Clinical and training services are not yet available. Joining the interest list is the best way to follow the project's progress and receive updates as it develops.
Are services currently available?
Not yet. Brilliant Minds is currently in development, and none of the services described on the Services page are available for scheduling. That page reflects the plan for the future center.
Are professional programs currently available?
Not yet. Brilliant Minds is currently in development, and no training program described on the For Professionals page is available for enrollment or scheduling.
Location & Online Access
Where will the center be located?
Brilliant Minds will be based in Raleigh, North Carolina, serving the wider Triangle region. The long term vision also includes online access, so the project's reach will not be limited to one location. Details about the physical center will be shared as they are confirmed.
Will online services be available?
Yes. Secure telehealth and future online resources are part of the long term plan, intended to extend appropriate services and professional education to families and professionals beyond Raleigh. Some services will always require the specialized equipment available at the Raleigh center, so online access is designed to extend the model rather than replace it entirely.
Will any support be available online?
An online component is planned where appropriate. Availability will depend on the type of service, the client's location, professional licensing requirements, privacy requirements, and clinical appropriateness. Occupational therapy generally requires in-person delivery.
Will virtual learning be available outside Raleigh?
Yes, virtual learning is planned to extend access to professionals and institutions beyond the Raleigh area, alongside on site training available locally.
Who We Serve
Who will Brilliant Minds serve?
Brilliant Minds will serve children and youth with developmental, communication, learning, emotional, behavioral, sensory, or inclusion needs, including examples such as autism, ADHD, learning differences, and developmental delays, along with their families, educators, therapists, and the professionals and institutions who support them.
Does a child need a formal diagnosis?
No. Brilliant Minds is planning to support children based on their individual needs, not only a diagnosis. Families with or without a formal diagnosis are welcome to join the Interest List.
Services & Model
What types of support are planned?
Three parts make up the planned model: Specialized Clinical Services, Parent Support and Counseling Programs, and Professional Training and Institutional Capacity Building, designed to support the child, the family, and the professionals and schools around them. Together, these parts are meant to work as one coordinated plan rather than as separate, unrelated offerings.
How will the multidisciplinary model work?
Professionals across different areas are intended to coordinate around shared goals rather than working separately. Families are included throughout, and the plan is designed to stay consistent across clinical care, home, and school, rather than existing as separate, disconnected pieces.
Which services are planned for the Raleigh center?
Child psychology, speech and language support, specialized educational support, and pediatric occupational therapy are all planned for the Raleigh center, alongside parent support and counseling programs.
Professionals & Schools
Will Brilliant Minds work with schools and professionals?
Yes. Brilliant Minds intends to work alongside educators, schools, therapists, healthcare professionals, and community organizations through future training, consultation, and collaboration. These formats are still being developed, and interested schools and professionals are welcome to join the interest list to learn about opportunities as they become available.
Who will the programs be designed for?
Educators, therapists, healthcare professionals, and the schools, districts, and organizations that support children with developmental and inclusion needs.
How can a school or organization express interest?
By joining the Interest List and selecting the option that best matches the type of collaboration you are exploring. Brilliant Minds will share updates as programs are finalized.

What will I receive after joining the Interest List?
