The Carole Robertson Center began implementing programs from its Little Village location in 1989. At that time, the site served 279 children, ages 3-18, and their families. In 2000, a 21,000 square foot addition was constructed adjacent to the original facility. This addition enabled the Center to offer much needed infant toddler care, and increased the total capacity to serve 481 children and youth. This site is also the home of the Carole Robertson Center's Community Partners program, Center for Adult Learning, and Family Home Child Care Network. | |
