SDN Children’s Services operates a range of programs throughout greater Sydney and the NSW South Coast helping more than 4500 children, almost 800 families and 1300 other children’s services providers each year. We provide a range of early intervention and support services to help children with disabilities, developmental delays, autism spectrum disorder, speech impairments and behavioural problems. We also help other children’s services providers to support children in their care who have special needs. In 2009-2010 we received more than $13 million from the Australian and NSW Governments to operate these programs.
