ARCHway, Inc works collaboratively with families to provide education, behavioral treatment, and supports the development of social connections for people with autism and developmental disabilities in a safe and healthy environment.
Emphasizing quality of life
Our goal is to provide the best quality of life for people on the autism spectrum who may be challenged but nonetheless fully deserve to get a strong education, to be treated with compassion and appreciation, and to enjoy a healthy and happy lifestyle.
Where learning and caring go hand in hand
We believe in working with the students and their unique needs and personalities. By allowing students to integrate their own natural characteristics with functional skills, we help them focus, learn, and grow.
"Treating the individual, Not the condition."
