“We had a wonderful visit at New Song. Caleb was so excited to show us everything. He looked great. The visit confirmed that this is where Caleb needs to be. He acted very happy, comfortable and proud of his home. We had a very good visit with the houseparents. This was very comforting and reassuring. They are so calm, loving and also tell Caleb what is expected from him. I feel very confident in how he is being cared for. Thank you for giving Caleb this opportunity.” -Ruth Ann, grandmother of Caleb
How does New Song partner with parents?
You remain in control of how long your child remains at New Song. Upon enrollment, New Song does not take over legal guardianship. It’s usually best if a child remains with New Song for at least 6 months, but parents have the ability to withdraw their children at any time. Children go on home visits with their parents every other weekend, at least 5 full weeks out of the school year, and for most of summer break. Children can also see their parents regularly through video calls.
