A GROWING COMMUNITY

Welcome to our newest May Center School, which opened in Chicopee in September 2022!

“Our school in West Springfield (see video) has an excellent reputation in the western Massachusetts community,” says Erica Kearney, M.A., LABA, BCBA, Executive Director of the new school and former director of the West Springfield school. “This is due in large part to the school’s exceptional, evidence-based services and consistently high levels of engagement that the staff provide students.”

The new Chicopee site is a Massachusetts Chapter 766-approved school, and its staff members include certified special education teachers, Board Certified Behavior Analysts, and other specialists. These highly trained professionals use proven methods of teaching and interventions based on contemporary educational and ABA research.

For more information or to schedule a visit, call 413.377.1450, or email Erica Kearney at ekearney@mayinstitute.org.
