This program targets children and youth with cognitive and physical disabilities with their parents/caregivers. It provides access to our multidisciplinary team which focuses on the assessment and training of caregivers on how best they can continue with therapy at home. The program can last from one intensive therapy week to three months. Private sessions can be provided on appointment.

Research has shown that intensive therapy can lead to significant improvements in learning, motor function and quality of life for children with Autism and other Neurodevelopmental disorders.  In addition, some studies suggest that intensive therapy can actually change the brain structure of these children, potentially leading to lasting improvements

During the weekdays from Monday to Friday, the transitional school program teaches both children with and without disabilities of different ages.

Special education (also known as special needs education, aided education, exceptional education or Special Ed) is the practice of educating students with special educational needs in a way that addresses their individual differences and needs. Ideally, this process involves the individually planned and systematically monitored arrangement of teaching procedures, adapted equipment and materials, and accessible settings. These interventions are designed to help individuals with special need achieve a higher level of personal self- sufficiency and success in school and in their community.

A properly adapted teaching space, the use of technology, a resource room, or other additional educational services are likely to be beneficial for students with these kinds of special needs.
