The National Association for Child Development is founded with the belief that every child, no matter his or her ability or disability, will learn faster when given the proper opportunity. NACD programs help to educate kids with conditions such as brain injury, cerebral palsy, down syndrome, learning difficulties and more. NACD provides development programs based on children's or adults' specific needs. The NACD also offers programs for typical and gifted children. Families can request to be evaluated in order to determine if NACD can provide services best fit for their situations.
