Elizabeth Richardson Center Overview

In 1963, a group of concerned citizens saw there was a need in Fayetteville to provide services for children with developmental delays or disabilities who were not being served by the public schools. In September of that same year, the school opened its doors with four students in attendance. Mrs. Elizabeth Richardson was the first teacher and she went on to become the first Executive Director. Since that time, ERC has grown to serve over 600 children and adults each year in ten locations throughout Northwest Arkansas. Our five Child Development Centers serve children from six weeks to five ye...ars of age who have been diagnosed with a developmental disability or delay. Each center offers speech, physical and occupational therapy in a preschool setting with a state-approved curriculum. ERC believes that smaller is better and, because of that, we have invested in communities throughout Northwest Arkansas to place centers convenient to where our families live and work. We want our centers to be easily accessible and welcoming for families and to feel like home for your little one while they are in our care. For adults with disabilities, we offer several programs that include vocational training, community employment, life skills classes, community involvement, recreational opportunities and independent living options.
