A Message From Our Founder
Dan Stachelski, MS, CCC-SLP
Owner, Founder, CEO
Early in my life I had a drive to create, whether it was building with Legos, with fallen trees for forts, or with remnant lumber to build benches. Along with the drive to create, I was determined to genuinely make a difference in this world with one team and one vision. The culmination of these values was the vision of a commitment to hope and the future of children and families affected by developmental challenges around the world.
It is a remarkable feeling when you find purpose and I feel fortunate every day I come to work. We have an incredible team and every moment of every day they do everything they can to support our patients. ICAN is a place of quality treatment, a place of innovation, a place of acceptance, a place of community, a place of growth, a place of engagement, and a place of fun. Our team continues relentless pursuit of our vision every moment, every day.
A commitment to hope and a future for children and families affected by developmental challenges around the world is our story and our vision. When I founded ICAN in 2008 I strived for hope and futures for all the patients and families I served. Today ICAN is a leader in treatment, education and diagnosis of children with developmental challenges in the Pacific Northwest. We achieve our vision as a multidisciplinary team, using evidence-based treatment, excellent people, innovative approaches and engagement from our families. We have grown from a single provider to a committed group of over 150 people. Collectively we have contributed to the hope and future of over 2,200 families and earned international recognition for the knowledge and services we provide.
