Become Part of our Mission

Celebrate the Children is dedicated to advancing the development of all children, adolescents and adults with autism and special needs. Our mission is to provide our students with a solid foundation of learning while supporting their physical, mental, social, and emotional development.  We take pride in encouraging students to be happy, secure, social, and creative individuals while celebrating each of the unique qualities that define who they are.

Tuition alone, does not cover the cost of program expansions and enhancements. In order to meet our mission and provide services to our students, we rely on the generosity of individuals and businesses for support. Without the generous support of a caring community, we wouldn't be able to serve those in our school each year.
