PEP Harbor, one of PEP’s ten Day Treatment Centers, specializes in serving children and youth with autism spectrum disorder.

At PEP Harbor, our approach is highly individualized.  PEP doesn’t expect the child to fit into the program - the program is built around the needs of each child. PEP professionals have a firm foundation in behavioral strategies and are trained in multiple methodologies for working with children and youth with autism spectrum disorder including: Applied Behavior Analysis, Developmental Therapy/Developmental Teaching, Floor Time, Positive Behavioral Supports, Sensory Integration and TEACCH, among others.

Many young people with significant developmental delays simply cannot transfer skills learned in the classroom to life in the real world.  To help children generalize skills, PEP Harbor accesses an alternative curriculum that is aligned with Ohio’s Academic Content Standards through a continuum of community-based experiences
