Celebrating a decade of compassionate care and child-centered service provision.
The Child Development Center (CDC) is the pioneering multidisciplinary special needs center in Qatar, which has been a beacon of hope, progress, and resilience for families and children navigating the journey of autism since 2013.
CDC provides a network of internationally qualified and licensed professionals who offer child-centered and evidence-based therapy for children with autism, speech delays, and related developmental disorders.
As we celebrate our 10th anniversary we are filled with gratitude for the trust of our families and our community, the relentless dedication and compassion of our professional team, and the remarkable progress of the children we have been honored to serve.
10 years of dedication to Qatar’s special needs community.
Ten years ago, we embarked on a mission to provide high quality therapeutic services for children with autism in Qatar, to build a supportive community.
Over the years, Child Development Center (CDC) for Special Needs has continued to carry out and initiate countless advocacy initiatives. We have hosted several informative conferences, symposiums, and workshops to educate and bring together the community. We have participated and contributed to several research projects locally and internationally and we have actively promoted and facilitated inclusion practices in our community through various initiatives.
Fast forward to today, we are humbled to have touched the lives of hundreds of families, helping children find their voice, connect with their surroundings, and achieve their fullest potential.
CDC continues to actively collaborate with and support other centers, institutions, and stakeholders in the special needs community in Qatar. We also host Autism Connect, an annual networking conference that brings together therapy centers, schools, institutions, researchers, retailers, and parent advocates in facilitating connections and collaborations amongst our community.
