Children with Special Needs
Our team of Child Development Specialists – the Inclusion Team – helps families of children with special needs connect to inclusive child care placements in San Francisco. We serve families with children and young adults ranging from birth to 22 years of age. We serve families of all backgrounds and language capabilities. Placement services are free and confidential.
The Inclusion Team’s knowledge of San Francisco’s child care field allows us to understand each child’s needs and connect them with providers who will support their social and emotional development.
