It is the mission of Common Paths to provide a quality child care program for children with special needs and their peers in an inclusive setting. The program provides opportunities for the child with special needs to interact with other children and to help all children participating to grow by working, playing and developing personal relationships with each other, regardless of their differences.

Children at Common Paths grow and play together in an inclusive setting; children with special needs experience a normal learning environment. Children are able to: interact with peer models, realize potential skills more freely, make new friends, and learn about each other. This type of child care setting provides an opportunity for children, parents, and the community to learn to accept differences in people and develop a positive perspective about children with special needs.
