Villa Lyan was founded as a non-profit organization designed to meet the educational, developmental, and emotional demands of children with special needs within the school setting. The school is an affiliate of Creative Children Therapy (CCT), a non-profit pediatric outpatient rehabilitation center in Kendall that was founded in 2003.
As an affiliate school, Villa Lyan has enabled CCT to expand its vision and more readily meet its mission of enhancing the quality of life of children with special needs and that of their families by using a holistic, team oriented approach to develop educational, recreational and rehabilitation programs that encourage children with special needs to actively explore new interests and broaden their involvement in the community.
