CHILD DEVELOPMENTAL HOMES
A Child Developmental Home (CDH) is a licensed family-home setting in which a child (ages 0-17) with special needs is placed when they are in need of a temporary, long-term or permanent home. The CDH Provider offers a variety of support services to enhance the physical, emotional, and mental well-being of the child in a family home setting.
Additionally, CDH Providers facilitate access to community resources and activities, ensuring the child remains engaged and integrated within the community. Regular health and wellness checks, as well as coordination with healthcare professionals, ensure the child's overall well-being is closely monitored and maintained. Through these efforts, a Child Developmental Home provides a stable, loving, and enriching environment where children with special needs can thrive.
