Residential Life is a blend of the nurturing, comforting
and caring aspects of home, complemented by a 24 -
hour educational environment. While campus life at
the residence is less structured than during the day, it
implements the same methodologies under Daily Life
Therapy® to promote generalization across all settings.
The residence offers two program options, operating
304 and 365 days a year, depending on each student’s individual programming needs. Teaching self-care skills
is a major focus of residential education across all age
levels.
Another focus is to teach recreation and leisure skills in order to develop a broad range of interests,
enabling students to participate with their siblings and
other family members during visits home. Students
enjoy frequent community outings, such as trips to museums, the YMCA, bowling, movies, hiking in the
Blue Hills, shopping, and dining at local restaurants.
