We believe that the best place for children to grow up is in families.  Maryville Academy offers resources to support and preserve families through a respectful, strengths-based approach that views the family as central to the child's well-being.  Maryville Academy works with the families to ensure the safety and well-being of all family members.  The family support services provided help to strengthen the capacity of families to function effectively when dealing with life challenges.  We engage, empower and partner with families throughout decision and goal-making processes and we provide individualized services for each family linking them to community-based networks of supports and services.
