Keikens

Keikens (meaning "experience" in Japanese) is a co-pilot for families navigating care for their children with brain or body differences. With 1.6B individuals globally experiencing neurodevelopmental and physical differences, we help parents translate complex reports into understandable language, match with the right providers for their needs, and prepare effectively for critical planning meetings. Founded by a mom navigating two generations of care differences—first for her father with physical disabilities and then for her neurodivergent son—we understand the challenges families face when coordinating 5-10 specialists yearly. We're proud to be one of five entrepreneurs selected for The Divergent Impact Fund's inaugural fellowship, focused on advancing solutions for neurodivergent and disabled individuals. This 18-month program provides resources and mentorship to help us scale our impact. We're also honored to be selected by MESA (Minnesota Emerging Software Advisory), gaining access to experienced advisors who will help us scale our impact and reach even more families. Our mission is to make care navigation simpler and more accessible for everyone involved. Follow Keikens to stay updated on our progress! #braindifferences #bodydifferences #caresupport #techforgood
