Early Start Resource Center

We Live in Hope

Parents and families discover first-hand the joys and challenges of nurturing their children with special needs while still maintaining family routines, relationships and activities.

The support and information provided by Early Start Resource Center helps to reduce the feeling of being overwhelmed by that of new parents. ESRC respects each family's unique culture and preferences. 
We form partnerships in which we have a shared view of the child's strengths and needs.
