Child Development Center was established in 2011 and became an independent department of Faculty of Rehabilitation & Allied Health Sciences (FRAHS) in 2015 for the learning and development of children with different disabilities.
Child Development Center is the only center in the twin cities to provide a balanced, structured program of learning which allows every special child to progress on his or her own pace while ensuring equal opportunities for all. The center also includes prominent pediatricians, clinicians, physical therapists, speech pathologists and occupational therapists on its panel. The center also seeks guidance of foreign qualified professionals on case to case basis.
At CDC, parents are encouraged to take full part in their child’s progress by attending formal reviews, regular parent-teacher meetings, and an open invitation to contact the center at any time to discuss any concerns regarding their ward’s education or any matter concerning the care and welfare of their child
