Message to Newly Referred Parents
Dear Parents,
Our goal at Mary Cariola Children’s Center is to discover your child’s full potential.
We will do so through innovative equipment and by drawing on our 60 years of experience. But our greatest resource is our staff—the teachers, aides, nurses, therapists, clinicians, social workers, service coordinators, resident counselors and other team members. Each one of them is a critical part of an incredibly dedicated team.

Together, they will provide the highest level of support and care for your son or daughter. We will work as hard as we can to ensure your child is given every opportunity to learn and grow. It can be as simple as learning to raise their hand in the classroom or making dinner in one of our homes.
Small strides such as these can turn into bigger strides, but the most important thing is to simply begin—together. One of our founder’s most enduring philosophies was that it’s crucial to involve the family. With your help, we look forward to helping your child be all that he or she can be.
Please feel free to
contact us with any questions, comments, suggestions or concerns. That’s why we’re here. Welcome!
Paul C. Scott, LMSW
President
