HISTORY

In the 1950s, it was clear to the citizens of Trumbull County that there was an increasing need to provide specialized services for children of the community with special needs. Area Rotary Clubs stepped forward to join the growing movement to do something about it. In 1957, they founded the Halsey W. Taylor Rehabilitation Center. The original facility was located in a small home on Laird Ave. in Warren, Ohio, near Trumbull Memorial Hospital.
The founders’ understanding of the need became immediately apparent as the Center quickly grew and became an important resource for families with special needs children. This growth sent the board on a hunt for a larger space capable of handling more children and offering more programs. They found that facility in 1969 in Howland where it remains to this day. In 1971 the Center was renamed Children’s Rehabilitation Center.
In order to meet an increasing demand for childcare and preschool programs, Kids Garden was opened in 2010. Today the Center continues to offer physical, occupational, and speech and language therapy programs, and our Kids Garden Program.
