Mission Statement
We want young people with mental and developmental diagnoses in the Greater Sacramento region to have the best possible outcomes as they transition into adulthood. We want them to be the happiest and healthiest that they can be. And we want to produce significant results with an efficient usage of resources.
About This Cause
SASSNA is a California public benefit nonprofit corporation, and is state and federally (501c3) tax exempt. We are an alliance of, primarily, families of mentally-diverse youth, but also include professionals, mentally-diverse adults, and other individuals interested in our cause. We exist to make sure that every mentally-diverse child is nurtured and protected toward a life of self-defined happiness and health. Toward this goal, we provide comprehensive assistance to youth and their families so that every aspect of the young person's development is cared for. We support positive outcomes through outreach, services, activities, and resources. Since 2011, we have led the effort to ensure the well-being of the Sacramento metropolitan area's mentally-diverse youth. We are at the forefront of conceptual and practical interventions to optimize the quality of life for young people with mental diagnoses.

Down syndrome, ADD/ADHD, Tourette's, Fragile X, sensory processing conditions, intellectual disability, obsessive compulsive disorder, learning diagnoses, cerebral palsy, and others.
