Save to Favorites

Located in Thompson, Connecticut, The Susan Wayne Center of Excellence offers an intensive residential, educational and clinical milieu, and medical services for up to twenty seven boys and girls who are mild to moderately cognitively impaired with concurrent behavioral, mental health, and medical issues. We utilize a DBT based, cognitive-behavioral, trauma informed, clinical model with a system of positive incentives to help our students develop pro-social coping skills and achieve their treatment goals.

Students engage in a full academic instruction schedule in their on-site school, five days a week, year round. Leisure activities, sports, and outings as well as on-site activities help to develop social skills. The SWCE offers highly skilled direct-care staff around the clock, as well as teachers, nurses, clinicians, counselors, recreation staff, and a Medical Director (a board-certified psychiatrist). On-site nursing coverage, 7 days a week, supports students diagnosed with significant mental illness and behavioral issues, requiring intensive monitoring and support as well as with medical involvement. Students who might otherwise experience repeated hospitalization and/or the trauma of multiple failed placements enjoy the benefits of a small, stable, warm, home-like private school setting that provides them with a an intensive educational and treatment experience in which they can begin to achieve their long term goals.

We are seeking a volunteer who can assist us in the office. Tasks will include:

• Greeting Clients/Family Members
