Department of Developmental Disabilities

The Pediatric Developmental Center’s (PDC) mission is to provide evidence-based, quality diagnostic and supportive services to youth in need. PDC services include medical diagnostics, ECHO Autism, psychological evaluations, and rehab therapies. The PDC primarily serves children from few months old to age 10. PDC also serves patients from 11 years and older, but they provide far less in numbers. PDC is using the funds to add a Psychologist and an Occupational Therapist (OT) to decrease the current waitlists for psychological evaluations and OT services. The psychological waitlist for evaluations can exceed 18 months and waitlists for OT services can exceed one year. Additional staff will make an immediate impact on these waitlists. With 49% of PDC patients identifying as Hispanic/Latin and 15% of patients preferring Spanish, PDC will recruit a bilingual Psychologist. Specifically, the additional psychologist will provide evaluations, treatment, group therapy and parent training. The Psychologist will participate in combo clinics (evaluations in conjunction with Developmental/Behavioral Pediatricians), Medical Diagnostic Clinics (multidisciplinary evaluations for Early Interventions) and an ECHO network (for community education). The Occupational Therapist will provide evaluations, treatment, group therapy and co-treatment. They will participate in Medical Diagnostic Clinics, Early Intervention group therapy (“Busy Bees”) and the ECHO network.
