Developmental Disabilities

Children with developmental disabilities usually present with low IQ scores, suffering from impairments in speech, language, hearing and memory. All of the difficulties affect their overall development.


On average children with development disabilities who presented to FHC were older by 21 months than the national average. They also had greater impairment as evidence by their initial scores. Nonetheless, by the end of the test period, improvement in the areas of self-care, mobility and cognition showed gains of as much as 234%!
