Children’s Institute for Learning Differences

"Every day, we prove that children deserve help before they fail. At CHILD, we bring a multi-faceted approach that uses intensive exploration to inform intervention.

We are committed to providing innovative school and therapy programs that promote social, emotional and academic development for children with special needs.

Using the Collaborative Problem Solving (CPS) model, we change the lives of struggling children and families, develop extraordinary professionals and work to transform the system of special education. We provide innovative school programs and therapies that promote social, emotional and academic development for children with special needs.

With full-day academic and therapeutic programs, as well as one-on-one private developmental therapy services, CHILD serves children ages 3 to 17. Our goal is to help students develop the essential skills that are critical to success.

As our programs continue to grow and be refined to meet the changing needs of students, CHILD has emerged as an organization that exemplifies the best practices in identifying barriers and developing solutions for our hardest to serve children—those most vulnerable to failure in school, at home and in life."
