The severe residential program serves students age 6 through 22 from across the united states. This program operates 365 days/year and is designed for students with the most severe challenging behaviors, including self-injury. These students reside in specially designed group homes which are staffed with 1:1 (sometimes 2:1) staff/student ratio throughout the day and night. Instruction is provided both in the residence and the school by a team of teachers, specialists and clinicians who work across both settings. The goal for these students is to decrease dangerous and severe behaviors and increase their ability to function and communicate independently so that they may move to a less restrictive environment for an improved quality of life.
