After about 18 months of meetings, planning, filing documents and hiring staff, the Menta Academy Yuma is ready to serve special needs children in Yuma County.
“From the very beginning what we heard loud and clear from our very first meeting is, whatever we do in the community needs to serve the entire community,” said Lindsay St. Clair, regional director of development for Menta’s Arizona/Southwest region. “It has to serve any child that needs our help in the entire Yuma community. So we’ve stood true to that because that’s what we said we would do.”
