Program:

Development

Speech and Language Development Center's program for infants, toddlers, preschoolers and students through grade 6 is known as the Jolin Program. Jolin features several Full Inclusion classes. This innovative setting, where regular and special education students share the same classroom, has tremendous benefits for all students in these classes. In addition, Full Inclusion classes create an opportunity for challenged and typically-developing siblings to attend the same school.

Eric
Program:

This portion of SLDC, for students ages 4-21, was named after Evelyn Erickson, an early special education pioneer in Orange County.
