The School at Springbrook
One School. Two Programs. The Tom Golisano Center for Autism focuses on improving students’ and their families’ quality of life by motivating children to learn and increase skills using a scientific, data-driven approach. The GEMS Residential and Day Program is for students of all levels of ability. This program includes the residential program for children who need the highest level of care and 24/7 support, and the day program for children who live at home.
