Easter Seals Sylvan Hills
Child Development Center
For more than 85 years, Easter Seals has helped children with special needs. These days, the agency has become the largest provider of services for children with autism.
At the Easter Seals Sylvan Hills Child Development Center, in a class of mostly 3-and-4 year olds, four children are diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder or ASD. At first glance, they're hard to spot and that's the point. This is an inclusive childcare class.
“We want to ensure that we had a way to include the children on the spectrum," explained Donna Davidson, President/CEO of Easter Seals North Georgia. "The children get into their own world. They feel more comfortable in their own world and it's our opportunity to bring them out of their world with the different strategies."
