The Stepping Stone Learning, Resource and Therapy Center, or Stepping Stone, is a learning institution for individuals with special learning needs. It is run by the Development Center for the Handicapped Foundation, a non-stock, non-profit organization, and is manned by a staff of educators with specialties in the fields of Special Education (SPED), Psychology, Family Life & Child Development, and Occupational, Physical and Speech Therapy. The school started operations on 12 January 1987 as an off-shoot of the Makati Research & Development Center.
They have begun searching for a suitable property on which to built a new school and to liaise with relevant private institutions and government agencies. On the 28th of July 2010, the school entered into an agreement with the University of Makati for a reciprocal arrangement that will allow Stepping Stone teachers free enrollment in Education courses in the university and in turn allow U-Mak students to do their SPED practicum at the special school.
The vision is to transform Stepping Stone into the most highly-regarded institution for special education in the country, a center for special-needs learning that will command top-of-mind recognition, attract the best and brightest SPED educators, and be the first choice for parents of children with special needs.
