Residential School at Dobbs Ferry

The Children’s Village residential school engages at-risk boys aged 6 to 20 in an enriched and structured program aimed at preparing them to be successful members of their families and communities.  It focuses on teaching pro-social behavior and fosters a love of learning, the acquisition of career-oriented job skills, and the development of leisure interests and skills that will foster life-long emotional and physical health and well being.

The school is staffed 24/7 with professionals experienced in helping children and youth deal with anger, feelings of loss, and educational failure. Located on a 150-acre campus just 35 minutes from New York City, Children’s Village provides extensive recreational, vocational, and educational facilities in a quiet, natural setting.
