Boys & Girls Village

Boys & Girls Village is a nonsectarian, not-for-profit agency serving children in crisis and those with learning difficulties throughout Connecticut. Founded in 1942, the organization operates as a licensed residential and therapeutic treatment facility, as well as a Day School for children with special educational needs. The school serves grades 1 through 12 with a co-ed student body of 57 students, comprising 70% students of color.

With a student-to-teacher ratio of approximately 4:1 (57 students and 14 teachers), the facility offers intensive intervention in the least restrictive environments, including home, community, and school-based settings. Programs focus on healing trauma, addressing rejection or abuse, and providing clinical, counseling, and special educational support tailored to individual IEP goals.

Admissions are rolling with no deadline, accepting referrals from DCF, managed care companies, and public school systems. The agency collaborates with families and community providers to offer a continuum of services, from residential shelter to foster and adoptive programs.
