Vermont Care Partners’ Therapeutic Schools

Our 11 therapeutic schools have the privilege of working students who are unable to access school in traditional settings. When children and youth are chronically exposed to adverse experiences that result in significant trauma and distress, the result is often severe emotional, social, and behavioral challenges which significantly compromise their capacity to participate in standard classrooms. Our therapeutic schools, which are embedded in community mental health centers and serve between 5-90 students, provide the intensive support necessary to allow children and families to feel safe and secure by delivering a broad array of trauma-informed, therapeutic and educational services in partnership with multiple providers.
