In light of the FDA pause on the Johnson & Johnson COVID-19 vaccine, this Situation Saturday we want to relate some vaccine information via the CDC. We believe it is important for you to understand the nuances of the vaccine options so you can make an informed decision about vaccination and make the best choice for your health, and the health of your loved ones. With clarity and courage, we learn more every day on how to stay healthy and navigate this pandemic.

We are ecstatic to welcome back residential students to the classrooms and halls of the School at Springbrook! It has been a long journey to get to this point, but with clarity and courage, our dedicated educators, direct support staff, nurses and therapists, families, and students made this possible. The COVID-19 pandemic tested the metal of our community and we are so proud of how Springbrook has come together and met the moment. There are times that you are confronted by a situation that can define you forever. You can either define the moment, or let the moment define you. Springbrook has defined the moment!
Please enjoy and share this wonderful Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports video and join us in welcoming back our residential students!
