Redefining Children’s Potential

Our Educational Model

No child is too challenged that they can’t be
given the opportunity to learn.

Our AAC Model

Since we service students who have complex communication needs, a strong emphasis is placed on providing every child with a means to communicate and the opportunity to learn and communicate throughout their day. AAC (Augmentative and Alternative Communication) opens the doors for students with complex communication needs to express themselves. Every child can communicate. We provide them with the means.

Our speech team is led by AAC specialist Judi Krumbein M.A., CCC-SLP, ATP. We provide individualized AAC evaluations for every student. Students’ communication skills and needs are assessed and matched with customized equipment for each student’s language and access needs. We work with a variety of equipment and device vendors to provide the best fit for each child’s communication needs. Intensive training and modeling for students, staff, and families are provided both in 1:1 speech sessions as well as in the classroom to teach students to communicate using alternative means.

The successes we
celebrate.

A child learned to use a sophisticated eye gaze device to communicate with the people around him. One of the first sentences he put together was “Mommy, you I like”!

Some of our students have learned that they can interact with their peers by pressing an accessibility switch with a pre recorded message on it.

A child who is learning to use a communication application on an iPad was able to express her distress to her therapist during a session by pressing the icons “stop” and “uncomfortable”.

Our Therapy Model

Therapy Team

Our highly skilled therapy team uses a wide array of cutting-edge research-based therapeutic techniques and modalities.

Service Delivery

Our delivery of related services is greater than students’ IEP mandate.

Group Therapy

In addition to students’ individual sessions, we provide weekly OT, Speech and Vision group sessions to support students in using the skills they’ve learned in therapy in other environments.

Therapeutic Equipment

We have a wide variety of adaptive equipment including standers, walkers, and gait trainers that are provided for our students based on their unique needs.
