Discrimination Policy:
We do not discriminate on the basis of race, ethnicity, national origin, religion, culture, sexual orientation, gender or identity, or handicap condition.
However, if a child’s handicap condition requires special therapy and care needed by a trained specialist, we cannot accept the child due to not being able to meet his or her daily care and safety needs.
