CDHS, The Center for the Development for Human Services (CDHS), is now Criterion Child Enrichment.

Criterion Child Enrichment specializes in developmentally appropriate programs and services for young children and their families. Our mission seeks to support the early development and education of young children and their families. We believe in the strength of the family and its capacity to promote the health and development of children.

We offer community-based developmental enrichment groups, child care, early intervention, newborn home visiting, and family center programs.

We emphasize the professional development of staff and other community child care providers. Each year, our agency sponsors the Great Beginnings Conference for advanced child care providers.
