The Children's Developmental Centre is a service oriented, not-for-profit organisation, dedicated in providing a broad range of educational and support services for children, young people and their families within the community. This is a place where Children and Young People with developmental disability have a "Sense of Belonging". Established almost 19 years, the Children's Developmental Centre is located at 31, Modupe Johnson Crescent, Surulere, Lagos State, Nigeria. A facility donated by the Lagos State Government, where we have begun to meet our children's needs for the future and the present. CDC's Three Areas of Focus: Services. Training. Advocacy. Our Commitment We provide Assessments and Diagnosis, Early Intervention Programmes, Pre-School and School Services, plus programmes for young people. Supporting these core services are communication theraphy, physiotheraphy, school visits etc. The centre has a community-based service, which has been focusing on government-owned homes to support their effort in providing care for children and young adolescents. We use the following approaches: 1. Team Work Approach. 2. Holistic Programmes for the Children. 3. Treat with dignity. Thirty percent (30%) of our population belongs to the range of 10-21 years old. However the centre cares for children as young as 10 months up to adults who are over 30 years old. It is evident that their rights, needs and interests are different as well as their families' anxieties. As a result the organisation has begun to invest in the future of our young adults, in providing a more appropriate environment and programmes to make sure they are included within the community as full adults and participating member of society. The concept of the Lagos living and learning centre is new in our environment, it is a place for young people to continue to develop skills within the community with support services for life.
