REED Academy (Bergen County, NJ) is a non-profit school serving children with autism. The school was founded in 2003 by a group of committed parents in response to the lack of appropriate services to meet the special needs of their children. The parents and faculty of REED work tirelessly to help children with autism reach their fullest potential. Bound together by their commitment to appropriate behavioral intervention for their children, the families worked together for two years raising funds, securing educational consultation services, and locating a setting before their vision became a reality and the doors opened to welcome their first students in September, 2003.

REED stands for Resources for Effective Educational Development. REED believes that all children have a right to learn and that the body of scientific literature in behavior analysis over the past 50 years provides us with the necessary resources to effectively educate our young learners

All of the classroom instructors hold at least bachelors' degrees. Currently over 75% of our classroom is either actively pursuing advanced degrees or certifications in fields like Applied Behavior Analysis and Special Education or already possess similar post-baccalaureate degrees.
