Our Programs

The Developmental Center of the Ozarks team is dedicated to helping change lives through a variety of services and programs.

We offer early intervention therapy as early as birth. Your loved one can receive therapy in the most natural settings — home, day care, etc. Parents can send their children to fully inclusive day care — some have special needs, and others do not. Adults with disabilities can spend time with other adults doing activities such as dancing and drawing, take classes on subjects such as photography or science, or receive the necessary training to pursue employment.

We’ve designed our programs with growth in mind and want to help individuals at every age find success.

Therapy Services

Our therapy services are tailored toward every individual. Our licensed therapists specialize in a range of therapies, including physical therapy, speech and language pathology, occupational therapy and special instruction. See what advantages our multidisciplinary team offers today.
