Thousands of children make use of the farm and outdoor education center each year. Following this, Green Chimneys began operating a 25 bed residence in Manhattan. This residence specializes in services to gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgendered and questioning adolescents. This has added to Green Chimneys' array of service providing intensive and less intensive services for male children and adolescents. A Residential Treatment Facility provides the highest level of care other than in-patient psychiatric hospitalization.
Referrals come from all over New York State.
This facility is located on the main campus in Brewster and has its own school building. The farm was expanded to include a wildlife conservation program. The Center houses a large collection of permanently disabled birds of prey and assorted wildlife. A licensed rehabilitation and rescue service is in continuous operation. The animal activities remain an integral part of all programs.
