Description

Friendship House is dedicated to providing programs and services designed to enhance the emotional, behavioral and social well-being of children and families in the Pennsylvania communities we serve.

The Northeast Regional Autism Center at Friendship House offers treatment options unique to the area. We provide information, support and extensive outreach services to families living in our community. Research-proven treatments and services delivered by staff, extensively trained in Applied Behavior Analysis, are the cornerstone of the program. Treatment is based on our philosophy that individuals on the Autism Spectrum can be active, contributing members of the community. Together, families and treatment teams help individuals to be as personally and socially independent as possible.

Friendship House is able to meet the needs of these families by providing support and services, along with encouraging resiliency.

Friendship House has a range of programs and services to meet the needs of children in our communities. We want to help you to provide the very best care to your child. Please review the information below to enable us to help you find appropriate services as quickly as possible.

For children whose best interests are served by being placed in a Group Home, we provide structured community living settings that offer children a neighborhood living situation when they are unable to live at home, but do not require residential care. Group homes may also serve as a supervised, step-down program from a higher level of care. Serving children in Philadelphia and Pottsville, Friendship House maintains group homes for males ages 9-18 years old. These boys attend local schools and participate in community services.
