Our Commitment to Children's Privacy:
Protecting the privacy of the very young is especially important.

In order to better inform the public of the type of services we provide, we do include photographs of individuals of all ages, including children, that show various types of therapy and services that may be received at our facility. Prior to publishing those photos, however, we obtain a photographic release from the individual or, in the case of children, the legal guardian. Releases are maintained at our facility, and individuals in the photographs may request a photo be removed from the website by contacting us directly through email, phone, or written request.
