What we do…

bulletWe are a licensed Extended Day Treatment Program and learning center in the Greater Hartford area
bulletWe work with school systems to help children whose social and emotional needs are interfering with their
ability to function in a traditional classroom setting
bulletOur programs are designed to meet individual needs, incorporating personal learning styles while at the
same time teaching critical life skills and coping strategies, promoting study skills, self-motivation and self-esteem
bulletWe address the obstacles that impact everyday life and we design our programs to foster each child’s ability
to live a happy and well-socialized life
bulletWe use a treatment modality called "Milieu Therapy" to accomplish this mission
bulletMilieu Therapy is a planned treatment environment
bulletAcademic support is woven into the daily milieu routine
bulletThe milieu is constantly supporting and guiding the children
bulletThe milieu takes into consideration the perspective of the child as well as the perspective of the milieu at large
