New skills in January!

The Tree of Possibilities is more than just a logo at Strive Center! We celebrate all the little victories - for every new skill a child learns, we give him a leaf or an apple sticker to put on his very own Tree of Possibilities poster. We keep one poster here at the center, next to his table, and one goes home, so families can celebrate all the little victories too. In this first month of the new year, the children have already learned 246 new skills! What a great start to 2025!

Brighton center ONLY closed on Monday, February 17th

Our Brighton center will be closed on Monday for a Professional Development Day. We will be providing a re-certification course for our staff in Professional Crisis Management, or PCM. This course helps to ensure that our staff are equipped for a wide variety of situations with children, and staff learn de-escalation, crisis management, and re-integration techniques. We will conduct two more PCM courses later this year, one re-certification for Burton staff, and one two day certification course for newer staff members.

Additional Schedule Change: Brighton ONLY closed on Thursday, March 20th

We will be closing our Brighton center for one additional day on Thursday, March 20th. This will allow us to free up enough staff from both buildings for the two day certification course described above. We will have our more experienced Brighton therapists work as "guest" therapists in Burton that day, so families will see some different faces there!

Meet the Team! Meet the Team!
