History and Philosophy:
The Wediko School was established in 1990 and is located on 450 acres of land in southern NH. Working to return students to their home and community, Wediko utilizes multi-disciplinary teams, individual treatment plans, and a strength-based approach to design treatment interventions. Wediko maximizes the therapeutic treatment by building collaborative partnerships with each student’s family, school, and outside agencies. The process may be completed in a matter of months or require Wediko to remain involved with the student and his family for an extended period of time.
