What is
Lynn Center
?

Lynn Center provides an early intervention and preschool program based in east Contra Costa County.  A full range of early intervention services are provided to children and families in their homes or in a community setting chosen by the family.  The services are for children from birth to six years of age. All services begin with the concerns of the family. Programs include interventions and strategies that reflect a respect for racial, ethnic and cultural diversity, as well as unique family differences. Lynn Center recognizes the family/professional partnership as the key to early intervention and preschool success.

Some of the many services offered by Lynn Center include:

  • family support
  • parent counseling and parent education
  • evaluation and assessment
  • case management
  • speech and language development
  • fine and gross motor development
  • sensory integration
  • social development
  • self-help skills development
  • play therapy
  • individual therapy
  • family therapy
  • consultation and collaboration
  • transition support

The goal of Lynn Center is to work with the family to help each child realize his or her maximum potential so that he or she can function in the least restrictive environment.

Our Early Intervention program serves children 1 to 3 years of age who are showing developmental delays or who are at risk for such delays. Services are provided at our center or in the child's home or selected community setting.

Our Preschool program serves children 3 to 5 years of age who need an intensive day treatment setting.

Lynn Center offers the TEACCH model and other specific strategies for young children with severe communication delays, PDD, and autism.

Lynn Center offers professional services for children who have experienced severe abuse or neglect or exhibit symptoms of attachment disorder, post traumatic stress disorder, attention difficulties, aggression or emotional withdrawal.  These children must be residents of Contra Costa County and eligible for Medi-Cal.

Children and families are supported during the transition from Lynn Center to public school or HeadStart.
