The psychiatric disorders include ADHD, Intermittent Explosive Disorder, PTSD, and various affective and psychotic illnesses. The population ranges from eight to twenty-one years of age. In addition to the on-campus program, the New York Center provides day services to five community-based youngsters with similar demographic characteristics. The New York Center also operates five nearby IRA facilities, accommodating eighteen developmentally-disabled adults. The Center provides full day, intensive educational and behavioral interventions to children with autism at its Westchester County site. | |
