Narrative

Residential Program

Our residential program helps people with autism build communication, coping, and adaptive living skills. Students receive individualized, behavior-focused support to address challenging behaviors and increase independence.

With guidance from our caring staff, students work toward transitioning to less staff-intensive settings while continuing to participate in academics, communication development, and recreational activities.

Our 14 fully-staffed homes, located throughout the MetroWest Boston region of Massachusetts, are specially renovated to meet students’ needs and provide 24/7 support. Residential students attend the Day School Monday through Saturday.
