Therapeutic Child Care Services (TCCS) is an inclusion program for children with behavioral, social emotional, or developmental delays. The therapeutic program gives children the opportunity to attend, learn, and play in a childcare setting. Children participate in activities and opportunities throughout the day with their typically developing peers. We recognize that every child is an individual, and make modifications and accommodations based on each child’s needs. Our goal is to give ALL children the opportunity to succeed.

TCCS is a Kids Connect Program, regulated by the Executive Office of Health and Human Services in Rhode Island.
