Educational services are also a priority, with the Village Academy delivering tailored learning programs aligned with Virginia’s Standards of Learning and offering related services like speech and language therapy. Recreational activities such as horseback riding, hiking, team sports, and swimming contribute to holistic development, while a full-time chaplain provides voluntary spiritual support.
A multidisciplinary team, led by a board-certified child psychiatrist, ensures comprehensive care that addresses the physical, emotional, educational, and spiritual needs of each child. The Village’s approach aims to help children overcome obstacles and reintegrate into nurturing homes and communities. The facility accepts Medicaid from several states, TRICARE, and most private insurance plans. Families are encouraged to tour the campus to determine its suitability for their child.
