REACH Program

The REACH program provides residential and educational services for young men who are cognitively limited with intensive treatment needs, including those with autism spectrum disorders. It is administered through the coordinated efforts of St. Christopher's and the Greenburgh-North Castle (GNC) School District, which work closely together to provide a safe, supportive structure for these challenged young men.

The goal of treatment in REACH, with consideration for the significant disabilities faced by the youngsters, is to teach appropriate behaviors and help the students develop the cognitive, social and life skills required to interact in the larger world.

The program is designed for 30 males from ages 12 to 21. Residents are referred from local school district Committees of Special Education within New York State.
