ChildServe is excited to share that the expansion project to double the space, and double the impact in our Ames community is now complete. The expansion will meet multiple needs at ChildServe, including additional space to serve more children as more clinicians are hired.

Since opening in 1995, ChildServe in Ames has been a staple in the community for families raising a child with special healthcare needs. The expansion doubles the current footprint when it comes to physical space, and it will also double the number of children served at the Ames campus.

The expansion project will provide additional space to provide treatment to over 200 children on a waitlist for outpatient therapy as more clinicians are hired. It also includes a customized space for the Autism Program, which offers a range of services for individuals with autism. The program features a unique floor plan where children can smoothly transition between individual and group therapy activities, classroom activities and play. Children across multiple services will enjoy working on their goals in the Georges Niang Therapy Gym, fully equipped with state-of-the-art technology and equipment.
