The Clinic for Special Children is a non-profit medical facility founded in 1989 to support Amish and Mennonite communities affected by rare genetic disorders. Based in Gordonville, Pennsylvania, the clinic works to translate advances in genetics into timely diagnoses and comprehensive medical care for patients. It serves both children and adults and focuses on understanding heritable diseases.

Its work centers on three goals: delivering effective and affordable diagnosis and care for individuals with genetic conditions; developing innovative laboratory methods that serve patients and families; and expanding clinical studies, education, and training in genetic medicine. Recent developments include a capital campaign to build a new facility and the purchase of a 10-acre property in Lancaster County near Intercourse, Pennsylvania, to support expansion. The organization also engages with the broader health community through regional events such as the Plain Community Health Consortium conference.
