PRIDE for Kids
PRIDE for Kids serves children from birth to three years old with a full range of therapies and special education emphasizing parent participation. Our caring staff of licensed speech, physical and occupational therapists and special education teachers create a specialized program for each little client and their family. The program often includes one-on-one therapy, small group therapy to promote social interaction and services delivered in the baby’s home. We involve parents, grandparents and caregivers in therapy so learning for the child extends beyond the walls of the Arc Family Center. Founded by a loving mom over 25 years ago, PRIDE has served thousands of children and continues to nurture and strengthen young children and families as they grow. Pride for Kids serves over 125 children with disabilities and their families each year.
