Parent/Guardian Testimonials
“I love what JRC has done for my son. The staff at the school, and residence are absolutely amazing. He has made so much progress, and he is off all his meds. His speech is so much better.”
“His case manager is amazing!! The caring she shows for my son is very comforting because we can’t be there. His whole team is amazing.”
“JRC is awesome. The services it has provided my son is beyond compare. There isn't any other program in the United States or the world perhaps that is able to help individuals with developmental disabilities, especially the ones that have behavioral issues. My son's behavior has greatly improved since attending JRC. He is receiving an education and is reading, writing and his ability to express himself have greatly improved.”
“Very happy how JRC handled the virus and the safety of our kids. You did not miss a beat in regards to continuing education and related services in the home.”
“His teacher has tapped into our son’s potential and he is now doing work he has not done in years. We are very happy about this! We knew he was capable of more difficult work and more time working on the computer. Also, when he came home over the summer he completed many chores independently to include making his bed, emptying the trash, getting the mail, running the vacuum, setting/clearing the table, etc.”
“We love the school and residential staff at JRC. They are patient and respect our son. They seem to generally care about his well being. He called his case manager and the supervisor at the house each day that he was home on vacation this summer! That speaks volumes to me!"
"Very happy with all the services provided. The program provides great structure that has helped my son stay on track.”
“Wonderful, awesome, safe, clean, well supervised, wonderful staff. We are very fortunate to have such a wonderful place for our son.”
“Our son has been there since he was 16 years old and is now 53 years old. He has lived those years in dignity under the supervision of a wonderful staff.”
“I have always felt that JRC is a well-run, competently-staffed organization since the days it was known as Behavior Research Institute. Without the caring support and targeted interventions used my brother would not be in the high-functioning state he enjoys today. Even in the midst of the pandemic, JRC has been above-board and proactive, keeping parents and guardians in the loop as to what changes are necessary to keep people with special needs safe. The executive and clinical staff are forthright and capable people who have dedicated many years of service to our families and I look forward to a continued run of getting through it all together.”
“We want to thank the wonderful and amazing staff. Your management does an excellent job of hiring and retaining an awesome staff. Thank you all so much for taking such exceptional care of our son!”

“We are Extremely Pleased with how cautious JRC has been protecting all the clients from the virus. We know it’s been very challenging, but we Thank and Congratulate both the administration and staff for the very low number of cases and exposures!!!!”
"JRC has been a God send for my brother, he has a well balanced structured life compared to arriving to JRC. JRC has made everything that I thought was impossible possible for my brother in terms of his behaviors and just having a nice community of staff, friends, teachers, and facility all around. He enjoys outings and can actually participate and enjoys life as he should."
