Program for Intellectual Empowerment - PIE

Program for Intellectual Empowerment - PIE Special Education NsLLT Program
Whole person, brain-based learning. P.I.E. Our program is based on how language and the brain function together.

provides intellectual stimulation of the mind through Dr. Ellyn Arwood’s Neuroeducation Model, the Neuro-semantic Language Learning Theory (NsLLT). Internally, the neurobiological process for conceptual learning is layered and starts at the sensory level that overlaps into patterns, then those patterns create concepts. Research confirms that conceptual learning through language occurs in neural ne

tworks with multiple access points running along circuits of nerves in the brain (Olson, 2001). Language is the mediation between a child’s literacy and behavior. Language names a child’s thinking. The program focuses on helping children express themselves by increasing rich language and providing a rich and respectful socio-cognitive environment. We will help them develop creative problem-solving skills, and communicate their thoughts and ideas in a variety of ways.

REPOST from Beaverton Area Chamber of Commerce

BACC Non-profit Partner of the Year Nominee Program for Intellectual Empowerment - PIE

Program for Intellectual Empowerment - Since 2018, Pauline and her team at the Program for Intellectual Empowerment (PIE) have been doing so much more than just providing a service; they've been building a bridge.

By creating a warm, creative space where individuals with autism and developmental disabilities can truly be themselves, Pauline has turned "inclusion" from a buzzword into a reality. Whether she is championing her students in the classroom or advocating for a more empathetic community at large, her approach focuses on what people can do, fostering self-expression and connection in a way that helps everyone thrive.

PIE deserves to be Nonprofit of the Year because Pauline doesn't just fill a gap in support; she creates a village where neurodivergent and neurotypical neighbors learn, grow, and celebrate one another side-by-side.
