Alderwood Family Development Centre offers a school program and day treatment services for children and families with complex needs. We offer a small, supported and structured classroom environment and we provide a range of child and family interventions. Alderwood helps children and their families understand and manage the impacts of their complex needs.
Our team is multi-disciplinary and composed of a developmental pediatrician, psychologist, child and family therapists, teachers, support workers and other professionals providing consultations, assessments and interventions. Parents are an essential part of the team and are included in all aspects of planning, goal-setting and decision-making.
Depending on the specific needs of each child and family participating in the program, services at Alderwood may include:
Extensive classroom support and adapted programs that foster resilience, self-regulation, recovery from trauma, and social-emotional development, as well as core academic and school readiness skills.
Clinical diagnostic assessment of complex developmental and behavioural conditions.
Developmental pediatric care and follow-up.
Individual and family therapy.
Parent education.
Advocacy and support in accessing other community resources and services.
