Hours: Norris Academy is a dedicated facility that provides psychiatric, clinical, and educational services for residents with co-occurring psychiatric and neurodevelopmental diagnoses. Many residents experience distress at home, school, or in the community, and often require more support than families and communities can offer. The experienced staff work closely with residents, families, community providers, and schools to assess behaviors, develop plans for behavioral change, and support safe transitions back into the community. Families and staff alike have noted the caring and helpful nature of the team. One parent highlighted the effectiveness of the treatment in helping their child stabilize and learn new skills, expressing gratitude for the care received. Staff members are committed to the progress of the children, often providing rewards such as gifts, outings, and fun activities like bowling, visits to the mall, and seasonal events like winter formals and visits from Santa. The staff also celebrate academic achievements with rewards for honor roll students. Norris Academy specializes in autism and employs professional experts who work with parents to set and achieve goals. The environment emphasizes continuous support, with staff making efforts to ensure residents feel cared for and supported. Some residents have appreciated personalized care, including help with gender identity and medication management, although some feedback suggests the need for increased supervision for certain children. Overall, Norris Academy is recognized for its compassionate staff and its focus on helping children improve their behavior and well-being.
