Another Remarkable Outcome in Berks County!
Our thanks to our Berks CYS case partner Greg Gerdeman for taking the time to acknowledge our hard work. And, to our exemplary family resource Specialist Noelle Hartzman for persisting until there was a good outcome for the family.

I truly do appreciate the amazing work that Noelle and...

Compass Academy Rings True for Students!
We’ve long known that our teen clients are the best systems analysts. They may resist structure, but they know when things are organized poorly. And, when there is accountability, high standards and a genuine concern to help them learn and improve, they correctly interpret it as ‘someone cares’. We are very appreciative to “Adam” for acknowledging the positive difference that Compass Academy has made for him. His senior thesis follows and we know he has taken the right steps to give himself a good future. We congratulate him for his hard work and his spirit of giving back. Out With...
