ABOUT PROGRAMS CAREERS NEWS + EVENTS RESOURCES DONATE PROGRAMS PEP Day Treatment Centers By delivering both mental health services and special education, PEP Day Treatment Centers provide a holistic approach to serving students ages 5-22 with significant behavioral and mental health challenges. Children with severe mental health challenges, difficulty regulating emotions, autism and other special needs often require therapeutic educational environments to reach their full potential. At PEP’s six Day Treatment Centers, staff build supportive and healing relationships with students that ultimately help them learn and grow. Achieving Results 94% of parents of children enrolled report their days are no longer interrupted by requests to remove their child from school. PEP partners with parents, family members and other adults critical to a child’s success to create consistency between school and home. Program Details Because of small class sizes, PEP’s teacher-counselors provide individualized attention and instruction required of students whose challenges prevent them from learning in typical classroom environments. PEP classrooms are led by teams of educators and mental health professionals who weave hands-on academics, therapeutic interventions and social-emotional skill development into cohesive growth plans for each child. Through evidence-based programming and supports, PEP Day Treatment Centers set the foundation for lasting change that instills hope, optimism and resiliency in children and their families. Rooted in the philosophy that guides PEP is the belief that each child – no matter the situation, struggle or circumstance – should experience some joy in each day. PEP’s centers are: PEP Eastwood (Euclid) PEP Greenview (Shaker Heights) PEP Hopewell (Cleveland) PEP Willow Creek (Grafton) PEP offers two centers with additional specialties: PEP Phoenix (Parma Heights) specializes in serving children with significant cognitive delays in addition to mental health challenges. PEP Prentiss Autism Center (Fairview Park) specializes in serving children with autism spectrum disorder and other complex developmental disabilities.
