What Sets Our Day Program Apart
Our dedicated team of highly qualified educators and therapists provides a robust and comprehensive educational program specifically designed to address the unique needs and abilities of each student. We take a holistic approach, integrating a wide array of allied health services to support students holistically. These services include specialized medical care, skilled nursing support, speech-language pathology, and the latest assistive technologies to enhance learning and communication.
In addition, our programs feature individualized therapies tailored to each child's requirements, such as physical and occupational therapy to promote mobility and independence, massage therapy to support physical well-being, and creative therapies like music and art to nurture emotional and cognitive development.
To further ensure students’ comfort and functionality, we custom-fit assistive devices—including wheelchairs, braces, and hand splints—as our children/young adults grow and their needs evolve. By seamlessly integrating these therapies and resources into daily routines, we create a supportive environment where every student can thrive and achieve their full potential.
