goals and each family’s goals and needs.
Tacoma Learning Center’s services include developmentally appropriate
encouragement and education in all five areas of child development:
cognition, communication, fine and gross motor skills, adaptive functioning
and social-emotional development. The philosophy of TLC centers on the
