National Childrens Center Inc

The early intervention program provides educational and therapeutic services through a variety of programs for children ages eight weeks to five years of age. The program establishes goals that will assist children in achieving developmental milestones and to be prepared for future educational success. Each child's educational and developmental goals are individually defined based on needs and abilities. Service coordination, support groups and training is provided for families.

Ncc supports people with intellectual and developmental disabilities to obtain employment, develop a career path and acquire and retain competitive employment. Agency employment specialists initiate a positive personal profile (ppp), which guides each person through a "discovery" process and creates a job search plan that is customized for each job seeker. The ncc employment specialists look for employment based on information obtained in the ppp and match interests, skill sets and required skills needed for the job to determine suitability. Job coaches provide the necessary job coaching and on-the-job training and support, while employers and co-workers are supported to work effectively with the new employees.
