We are a 501(c)(3) helping patients with life-threatening illnesses access alternative, science-driven therapies under the Right-to-Try framework.
The Last Chance Treatment Foundation came to fruition when Renee Codina came to our founder Brad Mislove looking for help for her autistic son. Brad then joined forces with his longtime friend Michael Berkowitz, who was on the cutting edge of alternative stem cell and hyperbaric treatments. This video tells the story of Anthony—and why treating autistic children is the very reason the foundation was started.
Stem cell and hyperbaric therapy for autism can reduce characteristics of autism. Specialists report improvements in behavior, anxiety, social skills, communication, speech, and ability to focus.
Stem cells may help repair, regenerate, and replace damaged cells in the brain by releasing growth factors that regulate immune imbalance and promote healing of damaged tissue.
We help families explore science-driven options when traditional paths have run out.
Inflexibility, issues with organization and planning, and difficulty switching between activities impair independence. Social skills may be poor; attempts to make friends can be odd or unsuccessful.
Marked difficulties in verbal and nonverbal communication. Restricted, repetitive behaviors; noticeable difficulties changing activities or focus.
Severe difficulties in communication. Very limited speech; odd, repetitive behavior. Many can only express basic needs.
Unfortunately, costs can range from $5,000–$50,000 per treatment. That’s why LCTF is dedicated to raising the funds needed to help deserving children and their families access care.
Your support bridges the gap between “possible” and “accessible.”
