The Adaptive Learning Center maximizes the potential of young children with disabilities and creates awareness and acceptance between people with and without disabilities. ALC achieves this through
- An early intervention program that integrates therapy and education in warm, nurturing, inclusive preschools.
- Support services that help family members understand and cope with issues related to raising a child with special needs.
- Education and consultation to help communities build resources that foster acceptance and support of people with differences and empower them to become active, contributing citizens.
History
The Adaptive Learning Center (ALC) was founded in 1982 by pediatric occupational therapist Susan K. Tauber.
In her daily work Ms. Tauber met many parents of children with developmental disabilities. These parents represented multicultural and socioeconomic backgrounds and came from communities all over Georgia. However, they shared a common desire for their children to have equal access to quality early childhood programs like those available to children without disabilities.
Families of children with disabilities wanted the same social and academic learning opportunities for their children that typically had been available to only non-disabled children. Mrs. Tauber created ALC in response to the concerns and needs of these parents and their children.
