The mission

What this organization describes

Our doors open many more.

The Center for Developmental Services (CDS) is a 501(c)3 organization that serves over 7,600 children and individuals each year with special needs, disabilities, and developmental delays. Whether a child comes to us right out of the hospital from being born prematurely, or is introduced to our services after a diagnosis in their teens, we are here for them. In one location, children can receive developmental screenings, diagnosis, therapy (occupational, physical, speech), audiology, psychology, prosthetics, orthotics, tutoring, bilingual services, outreach, legal aid, care planning, and family support. Founded in March 2000, the CDS partnership serves children from all over the upstate of South Carolina.
