Braun Day Treatment serves up to 25 Marin County children age 14 to 18 whose emotional and behavioral problems prevent them from being successful in public school. A special education school focusing on cognitive behavior disorders, Braun crafts individual treatment plans for each client that are enacted by a coordinated team of milieu counselors, teachers, and certified therapists.

Clients are aware of their personal goals at all times, allowing them to benefit from each individual, group, or family therapy session. Therapy, built throughout the day, can take the form of improvisational drama skits, music lessons and band practice, poetry readings, or yoga class.

Students also hold jobs that give them skills necessary to be successful in the community. The hope is that students will mainstream to less restrictive local public schools or complete the credits necessary to graduate from Braun. Braun is operated in conjunction with the Marin County Departments of Education and Mental Health.
