Restoring hope, one child at a time
Thank you for your interest in helping us to restore hope!

Wediko's programs make the difference
Our unique strength-based model focuses on the reality of the tasks of childhood. We help children determine what they do well and teach them how to use their skills to achieve success by:
- Providing a safe, nurturing, and stimulating environment;
- Fostering the development of adult and peer relationships;
- Providing compelling programming to encourage even the most reluctant child to participate;
- Viewing mistakes as opportunities for change and new challenges as a chance to master new skills.
Flexible programs designed to restore hope
Your support allows us to provide high-quality clinical and educational services to over 1,000 children and teens annually.
Our residential program for boys ages 6 to 21 utilizes multidisciplinary teams, individualized education plans, opportunities for positive social interactions, and a strength-based, family centered approach—all designed to foster success. (View Slideshow of the Wediko School Campus)
Wediko Summer
Located on a 450-acre, wooded, waterfront campus, the Summer Program provides an opportunity for children to experience social, emotional, and academic success in an intensive, short-term program.
