FINDING THE RIGHT child care for any kid can be tough, but there’s added stress if you need to find someone who can keep your special needs child safe, or deal with challenging behaviors. More and more children are being expelled from child care centers, leaving their parents struggling. Contributor Jessica Cochran reports on the challenges and successes of finding childcare for special needs children in our state.
The deadline for child care centers to apply for thread’s intensive consultation program is September 23. Another great resource for families with special needs children is the Stone Soup Group.
