GREEN CHIMNEYS IN FILM
Green Chimneys was honored as the "best documentary" at the Cinequest Film Festival. The film, which follows three young boys living at Green Chimneys, was made more than a decade ago. Since then, a new school has been constructed and the population has changed with more than 80 students from the community now enrolled in the therapeutic day program. What makes Green Chimneys' Residential Treatment Center unique and innovative is the multitude of academic, environmental and recreational programs offered to students. While enrolled in the program, students have opportunities to work with a variety of animals, engage in horticultural and outdoor educational activities, and participate in pre-vocational experiences in addition to completing the NY State Curriculum. These programs, activities and supervised settings help children foster self-control, build self-esteem and develop a path to emotional healing. Through interactions with animals, peers and staff, students begin to hope, dream and grow. To order a copy of the DVD, click here.
