Sandhills Children's Center We offer an Inclusive Early Education program serving children with and without disabilities.

Our mission is to provide services of the highest quality for children with and without special developmental needs. Sandhills Children’s Center opened its doors on September 15, 1970 with Sheri Davis as our first child. At that time, parents and advocates for children were witness to the birth of early intervention programs across the state that created a system for which North Carolina has been recognized as a leader ever since. From one child in 1970 to hundreds served by Sandhills Children’s Center today, our growth and accomplishments represent the hard work and dedication of exceptional employees, a committed Board of Directors, and a generous and responsive community. Sandhills Children’s Center continues to evolve year after year as we rise to meet the growing needs of very young children. The geographical impact of our efforts has spread across this south central region of North Carolina to include Moore, Richmond, Hoke and Scotland counties. Through this expanded mission, children and families throughout many square miles have been blessed with the opportunity to achieve their full potential.

What a wonderful Tuesday evening at the Sandhills Children's Center's Annual Fall Festival! šŸ‚šŸŽƒ

Our students and families enjoyed pizza, explored great reads at our Scholastic Book Fair, climbed aboard the Play Mobile from Partners for Children and Families, and got an up-close look at a real fire truck courtesy of the Southern Pines Fire & Rescue. Each classroom also hosted a fun fall-themed game or activity, creating smiles and memories throughout the Center.

Thank you to everyone who joined us and to our community partners who helped make the evening so special. We love opportunities like these to bring our Center families together!

šŸ“–āœØ Nothing brings people together quite like books, breakfast, and community.

Thank you to everyone who joined us for this morning's Family Breakfast to kick off our Scholastic Book Fair. We are especially grateful to our dedicated volunteers, whose support helped create a fun and memorable event for our children and families.

The Book Fair will remain open to Sandhills Children's Center families through November 8, giving students plenty of opportunities to discover new stories, spark their imaginations, and build a love of reading. šŸ“ššŸ„°

A big thank you to Golf Pride for spending part of your day with us at the Sandhills Children's Center!

There's nothing quite like experiencing our mission in action. We loved sharing our classrooms, introducing you to our incredible staff, and giving you a glimpse of the life-changing work that happens here every day.

Visits like these help connect the impact of community giving to the children and families who benefit from it most.

We're grateful for the support of United Way of Moore County, North Carolina and community partners like Golf Pride who help make our mission possible. Thank you for investing in the future of our children and our community and for helping us build a stronger, more inclusive Moore County.
