Birchtree Center

Description

The Birchtree Center is dedicated to helping children and youth with autism develop the communication, social, academic, behavioral, and life skills necessary for full and productive lives in their families, local schools, and communities.

Our nonprofit organization operates the first and only educational day program approved by the New Hampshire Department of Education that enrolls exclusively children and youth with autism. We serve families living with autism in many cities and towns where specialized autism services would otherwise be unavailable.

At our center in Newington, we operate a year-round special educational/ therapeutic day-school program providing intensive, one-to-one instruction and therapy for students with autism from New Hampshire, Maine, and Massachusetts. In our Outreach Program, behavior analysts and other staff travel throughout New Hampshire, Maine, Massachusetts, and Vermont to provide consultation, training, and direct services to a growing number of children and youth with autism in homes, local schools, and other community settings.
