Frazer Center
Located in metro Atlanta, the Frazer Center fosters inclusive communities where children and adults, with and without disabilities, gather, learn, and flourish. Since 1949, the Frazer Center has provided exceptional services to infants, toddlers, preschoolers, and adults with developmental disabilities such as cerebral palsy, spina bifida, down syndrome, sickle cell anemia, autism spectrum disorders, and other genetic disorders. The Frazer Center offers two programs: an inclusive, nature-based early childhood education; and individualized supports for adults with disabilities. Our NAEYC accredited Children't Program welcomes all children, regardless of ability, to experience the benefits of inclusion-based learning. We enroll children from infants through Pre-K in our day-long Child Development Program. Our Adult Services is CARF-accredited and supports individuals with disabilities ages 22-70+, as well as their families. Frazer provides person-centered daily opportunities for education, supported employment, volunteerism, community involvement, and recreation. The Frazer Center also manages the 39-acre campus which includes the old-growth Frazer Forest, and the beautiful, historic Cator Woolford Gardens. The Gardens may be rented for weddings and special events, and all revenue from rentals supports the Frazer Center, a non-profit organization.
