👶 Child Study Center
The Dillon Center serves as a model demonstration center for the developmental approach to teaching young children.
Our Brooklyn Campus Child Study students – as well as other groups and professionals outside of the University – utilize the Dillon Center to observe the developmental differences of various age groups and the range of individual differences unique to each child. Founded in 1934 as a laboratory early childhood center, the Dillon Center was among the first of its kind on the East Coast.
