The strongest predictor of a child’s success might be how well the adults around them communicate. We’ve studied every factor in a child’s development—except the power of adult collaboration. My big idea is simple and certain: if we enable parents to coordinate their child’s care team so that teachers, doctors, and therapists communicate openly, we can transform outcomes. This isn’t guesswork; it’s the next step we need to take to unlock every child’s full potential.

One parent’s “I consent” can turn isolation into impact. A parent’s consent isn’t just a form — it’s a bridge. When parents say “I consent,” they give teachers, doctors, and therapists permission to collaborate instead of work in silos. That single act unlocks communication, transforms care, and builds the foundation for effective, timely early interventions. And early interventions don’t just change childhood — they shape remarkable adulthoods.
