Why do children and youth come to Cunningham Childrens Home for treatment?
Cunningham kids are dealing with a wide range of emotional and behavioral problems, special education needs and learning challenges. While it is impossible to put our kids into categories, some of them are experiencing post traumatic stress disorder and psychological problems because of severe abuse and neglect. This can result in attention deficit disorder and hyperactivity disorder. And some of the kids have special education needs because of neurological difficulties caused by birth trauma, autism, Tourettes syndrome or other illnesses.
