About Our Students
The Judge Rotenberg Center (JRC) is a day and residential school. Since 1971, JRC has provided very effective education and treatment to both emotionally disturbed students with conduct, behavior, emotional, and/or psychiatric problems, as well as those with intellectual disabilities or on the autism spectrum.
Structure Allows for Student Progress
Students who have failed or made minimal progress in their previous programs often succeed for the first time at JRC due to JRC’s highly structured education and treatment programs based on Applied Behavior Analysis.
Individualized Programs
JRC offers a highly individualized treatment program that is able to serve students with a wide variety of problem behaviors. Every student has a uniquely tailored program filled with individualized rewards that he or she can earn throughout the day, evening and weekend.
Parental Guidance and Advocacy Assistance
JRC provides guidance and advocacy assistance to parents/guardians wishing to gain admission for their children.
Follow-Up Studies
One of the key goals of JRC’s treatment program is that the JRC students’ behavioral progress will generalize over time and across settings.
