Compassion in Action
For more than 70 years, Crystal Springs has provided a nurturing environment where all feel recognized and valued. Our goal is to empower and support every child and adult in reaching his or her fullest potential and greatest level of independence.
Through our exceptional programs and dedicated staff, we provide specialized educational, therapeutic and residential services to each person living and learning within the Crystal Springs community. Recognizing that all have unique gifts and the desire to achieve and contribute to their world, Crystal Springs embraces each person's pursuit of growth and independence so that all may reach their true potential.
Our beautiful, 45 acre campus is made up of 21 residential homes, 7 classrooms, 7 day habilitation groups, a modern, specially-designed infirmary, a rehabilitation facility which features a therapeutic pool, and of course, our one-of-a-kind universally accessible treehouse. Each residence provides a sensory-rich environment that promotes both rest and activity. With over 500 dedicated employees, our staff-to-resident ratios are among the highest in the field.
Over the years, the relationships that we have nurtured amongst our residents, families, staff and friends have become the foundation upon which much of our success is built.
