Exceptional Academy is launching in January. Carrie Steenbergen from TherapyWorks Cincinnati, LLC and Dr Elder from Ascent came together to start a new nonprofit. Neurodivergent students ages preschool though high school can attend an intensive academic and mental health therapeutic program two days a week. So many of our neurodivergent students are struggling to find placements and now we have a home for them. This is a dream come true for me, I’ve been working towards this for years.

Congratulations to Exceptional Academy! We’ve hired some amazing staff and are so thrilled to welcome our students in just a few weeks.
