Marian Hope Center was born of a vision for enhancing the lives of children with special needs through integrative, holistic programs. The center was founded by licensed speech-language pathologist, Angie Knight, M.A., CCC-SLP, and Karen Embry, parent of a child with special needs. Staffed by multifunctional therapists and paraprofessionals that are highly talented and nurturing, Marian Hope Center is growing and gaining recognition among health care, academic, and child advocacy professionals for its unique functional approach and phenomenal successes in treatment, instruction, and complete care for children and their families. Our student-to-therapist/paraprofessional ratios and “whole child” programs set us apart and make the difference in your child’s success.

“Empowerment is key … Marian Hope’s mission is to give children and their families the tools to succeed.” – Angie Knight, Co-founder “The therapists at Marian Hope Center see the brightest future for our children and help them reach their highest potential.” – Parent of Marian Hope Center students.
