LCC on 'QED!
Laughlin was featured on Pittsburgh 360 earlier this year. Check us out!Founded in 1956, Laughlin Children’s Center has a long tradition of offering multi-disciplinary educational support services to children from preschool through high school. Laughlin’s work centers on academic services such as tutoring, psychology services such as counseling and evaluations, and speech services such as screenings and therapy. Although they focus on different outcomes, these services work together comprehensively, providing support to the whole child.
As a community-based non-profit resource, Laughlin’s goal is to help each child build a bridge to successful learning. Click on the icons on the right, or the services link for a list of our programs, including our NAEYC-accredited Village Preschool. Laughlin Children’s Center is a special place where every child achieves personal success and develops confidence as a learner.

What's Happening?
As part of national “Better Hearing & Speech Month,” (BHSM) Laughlin Children’s Center is once again hosting a book drive to raise local awareness of the importance of diagnosing and treating communication disorders and reading problems. Interested families can drop off new books suitable for infants, toddlers, and preschoolers, at either Laughlin Children’s Center at 424 Frederick Avenue, or St. Stephen’s Episcopal Church at 405 Frederick beginning Monday May 14th. Look for the Better Hearing and Speech Month sign and the brightly-decorated book drop box. The book drive runs from Monday, May 14th through Thursday, May 31st. All donations will benefit Side By Side, which offers practical help to single mothers and to families who have children with special needs, by providing material help, mentoring and support from members, and practical help that uses the gifts of the church to meet the real demands of everyday life. Families are encouraged to purchase their books at Sewickley’s local book seller, The Penguin Bookshop, 420 Beaver Street.
