Spotlight

Spotlight is an innovative drama-based program for students ages 6-22 with social/emotional disabilities, including Asperger's Syndrome, autism, HFA, PDD/NOS, ADHD, Bipolar Disorder, and social anxiety.

Spotlight's unique approach integrates theater games with highly motivating age-appropriate activities that promote relationship building and foster skill development, providing a 1:3 staff-to-student ratio. We are pleased to offer year-round programming, including a six-week (5hrs/day) summer session, as well as after-school, weekend, and school vacation groups (February, April, and late August).

Spotlight also runs a "Teens in Transition" support group for 15-20 year olds transitioning into adulthood, along with a parallel support group for parents.

For 6-10 year olds on the autism spectrum we offer OnQ, a program which builds upon theoretical and practical components of Floor Time, Applied Behavioral Analysis (ABA), and Relationship Development Intervention (RDI). Social Stories, role play, and fun, engaging activities are employed in groups with a high 1:2 staff-to-student ratio.

Visit the Spotlight website to learn more about Spotlight and OnQ.

For more information on Spotlight, contact director Chris Curtain at 978-624-2335, or fax 978-762-3980.
