Help Us Help Children

Help us with our mission of helping children with disabilities walk, talk, learn and play.

Donate to CTC

We just concluded our 41st summer of Therapy & Fun, and our second summer of Therapy & Life Skills! From laughter on the playground, to serious faces while doing hard work, to high fives and handshakes, each client experienced growth beyond what we had hoped for.

Check Out the Highlights

Let's Play!

Therapeutic Play & Learn Groups will be back this fall. Connect with experts in early childhood development to ensure your child is “ready by five.”

Full Circle Family Coaching

We all want what’s best for our children, and CTC is here to help. We know that your child’s progress on their therapeutic goals doesn’t start and end at our clinic’s door— that’s why we’re expanding our services for a “full circle” experience!
