FUSE (Foundations for Understanding Social Engagement) was started 10 years ago to allow children with social challenges an educational environment that was focused on social and emotional learning development. We utilize curriculums such as DIRFlootime, Zones of Regulation,Social Thinking and Mindfulness. To intentionally teach social and emotional development.
Teachers have time each day to plan and prep for the next day. Teachers are supervised weekly by the founder Lauren Wereks, a child psychologist. Each teacher team works closely with a speech therapist and an occupational therapist as well. www.fuseprogram.com
