    Overview

    For 60 years, Ivymount has created nationally recognized programs and partnerships for people with autism and other developmental disabilities as well as their families.  The goal in all our programs is to help children, students, and young adults achieve their highest level of development and independence.  In addition to creating our own education and outreach programs, Ivymount forms partnerships with other organizations and researchers, often functioning as a training site.

    Named twice by the US Department of Education as a Blue Ribbon School of Excellence, The Ivymount School and Programs is a non-profit school and outreach center providing quality educational programs and therapeutic services to students with special needs from 4 to 21 years of age. Since its founding in 1961, Ivymount has helped more than 8,000 young people, from throughout the Washington metropolitan area to lead independent and fulfilling lives as productive members of their communities. Ivymount has been chosen by respected researchers and practitioners as a training and research site, and currently has over a dozen collaborative partnerships with leading organizations in the Washington DC area _ including: Childrens National Medical Center, Georgetown University Hospital Pediatrics and The Smithsonian Institution.
