Our History

Since 1979, The Florida Center for Early Childhood has been serving our community’s children and families. The Florida Center for Early Childhood’s roots stem from two prominent organizations: The Family Counseling Center and the Child Development Center. In 2003, these two organizations merged to form The Florida Center for Early Childhood.

The union of these two organizations has allowed The Florida Center to provide a seamless delivery of services for the whole child and his or her family.

Today, The Florida Center for Early Childhood is nationally recognized for excellence in early childhood development, child abuse prevention, infant and early childhood mental health and Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorders.
