MRC-NECC is a local Abu Dhabi branch of The New England Center for Children, Inc. (NECC), a world leader in autism education and research. NECC has served children with autism and their families near Boston, USA for close to 50 years, including over 20 years in Abu Dhabi. NECC-Abu Dhabi was established in 2007 by a directive from H.H.

In 2018, the Center's name was changed to the Mohammed Bin Rashid Center for Special Education (MRC-NECC) operated by The New England Center for Children, to recognize the contributions of H.H.
