The Center for Specialpædagogiske Børnetilbud (CSB) is a part of the Municipality of Aarhus in Denmark. It is a center in the Department of Social Services and Employment.
CSB is a center for children and adolescents with special needs, and their families. The Center focuses on children and adolescents acquiring life skills in the form of personal development, health, and well-being, leading to an adult life which is as independent as possible. It also focuses on the family situation and offers support in the understanding and handling of the specific needs of the child/adolescent.
CSB is a knowledge and resource facility actively involved in collecting, developing and disseminating practical and theoretical knowledge on working with children and adolescents with special needs, and their families. Its objective is to pass this knowledge to the children/adolescents and their families as well as to specialists, theorists and others with an interest in the field. CSB has an ongoing collaboration on this very matter, both nationally and internationally.
