About IvymountWhat is it like to work at Ivymount?
Since our founding in 1961, Ivymount has been a leader in developing and delivering evidence-based special education services and programs to meet the evolving needs of our neurodiverse community, as well as thought leadership and products for other professionals.
We’ve grown from a small, community-based school to a premiere nonprofit educational organization. We remain committed to our original goal: to provide compassionate, science-based support that empowers our students and clients to achieve their greatest independence and lead fulfilling lives beyond the walls of Ivymount.
With the creation of Community Outreach and Ivymount Endeavors, we are able to share what we learn from our staff and students with the national special education and professional training community. In addition to creating our own education and outreach programs, the Ivymount Organization forms partnerships with outside organizations and researchers, provides training and practicum, and contributes to special education best practices and thought leadership.
