Nurture Hearts. Inspire Minds.
The Appalachian State University Child Development Center (CDC) is designed to provide high-quality care and education to young children and families with current, full-time affiliation with App State (student/faculty/staff parents). We are an early care center providing a safe and nurturing environment which supports the developmental needs of young children and allows families to more fully engage in campus life and academic success.
