EDUCATION PROGRAM - The Center for Discovery (TCFD) is the largest provider in New York State for children with complex conditions, including autism. We currently are approved to serve 420 students ages 5-22: 164 residential and 256 day students. Our program integrates special education, clinical services (including occupational, physical, and speech therapy), behavioral intervention by Board Certified Behavior Analysts, rehabilitation technology, adaptive physical education, and arts-based therapies, all within universally designed spaces and a nature-based learning environment. Certified by both NYSED and OPWDD, the school and residential programs operate seamlessly, implementing our SynergE6 curriculum as our framework for instruction to ensure continuity of care and education. Length of stay is individualized. Some students remain at TCFD through graduation at age 22, while others transition earlier to a less restrictive level of care within the New York State Education Department (NYSED) continuum of services. All admission, transition, and discharge plans are collaboratively developed, goal-oriented, and student-centered.GeographiesNot indicatedDatesJan 1, 2024 – Dec 31, 2024Source990No causes providedNo populations provided–$39.3MDay Habilitation Program
