To schedule an intake, call Courtney at 843-792-4113 and request a Project Rex Assessment. Once the intake is complete, again contact Courtney at 843-792-4113 to confirm attendance in the group series.

Please plan to arrive 15 minutes early for sign in and registration. This group includes a required, concurrent parent/guardian component.

Interested patients and family must commit to being able to attend each group session. We can no longer allow patients and family members to join the group after the first week. We ask if you know you cannot commit to the full 14 week series to instead consider attending a future round of the program. Thanks for your continued support and cooperation as we work with all insurances to ensure that our programs remain available to all children.
