FOR LEARNERS OF ALL AGES!!

Learning never stops, and neither does our commitment to making it accessible for every student who walks through our doors.

Our educational program offers traditional and functional academics, as well as vocational training, to children and adults of all ages with Down Syndrome, Angelman Syndrome, Cerebral Palsy, Autism, and similar intellectual and developmental differences. We welcome students from ages 6 to 100, and are proud to be a diverse community open to students of all faiths and backgrounds.

We are the only non-public school in the area to offer on-site speech therapy from a licensed speech therapist, and our year-round program keeps students from regressing during summer months.

This is where your donation makes a difference.

Every gift this year will go toward two critical needs: scholarships for deserving learners who want to attend but cannot afford it, and building support, including rent, utilities, and housekeeping, to keep OMOPHEP a top-tier place for our educators, paraprofessionals, and learners alike.

Our ultimate goal for every learner is to help them live independently, fulfill their chosen vocation, and contribute to their community. With your support, we can keep that goal within reach for every learner who needs us.

Mission

The mission of Our Mother of Perpetual Help Educational Program is to provide traditional and functional academics and vocational training to students with Down Syndrome, Autism and similar disabilities, and to insure their complete inclusion in society.

Needs

This year, donations will go directly toward two critical priorities. First, scholarships for deserving learners who want to attend OMOPHEP but cannot afford it. These are learners with so much potential and families who believe in what we do, and your gift can make attendance possible for those who need it most.

Second, building support including rent, utilities, and housekeeping to ensure our facility remains a top-tier, safe, and welcoming place for our educators, paraprofessionals, and learners each and every day.
