E3 Transition is a therapeutic program affiliated with The Glenholme School and allows young adults to strengthen their independent living skills to eventually live a productive life. The three ‘E’s’ stand for Emerge, Expand and Evolve.
E3 serves students ages 18-22 and those diagnosed with High Functioning Autism, anxiety and depression. Students have the option of attending college at nearby Post University or Northwestern Connecticut Community College.
A recent addition to the program is a converted storefront in Torrington that serves as a central ‘Hub” for the young adults. The space offers a conference room, a lounge and offices. From that location students can access retail stores, restaurants, job sites and other opportunities for community involvement. Staff teach a variety of classes such as financial acumen, career readiness, interpersonal dynamics, personal health and wellness.To learn more about the program call admissions at 860-868-7377 or admissions@theglenholmeschool.org.
