VAISEF Accredited logo

In addition to being licensed by the Virginia Department of Education (VDOE) as a private residential school for students with disabilities, Liberty Point Behavioral Healthcare’s school, Liberty Point Academy, is accredited by the Virginia Association of Independent Special Education Facilities (VAISEF), whose accreditation process has been approved by the Virginia Council for Private Education (VCPE) as authorized by the VDOE.

To be accredited, Liberty Point must undergo a rigorous accreditation review by a recognized VCPE member association whose Standards of Accreditation and review process have been approved by the VCPE Board. As such an association, VAISEF accredits private special education programs which are regulated by the VDOE and provide educational programs and related services to students who need an Individualized Education Plan (IEP) and/or address other conditions which may cause students to be “at risk” in traditional school settings.
