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.
