What We Do.
Our Mission
The Deutsch Institute has been serving the Northeast Region of Pennsylvania since 1979. We are dedicated to developing and expanding resources and opportunities in order to improve health and well being for persons with special needs. The Deutsch Institute makes use of existing resources and facilities as well as volunteer services to initiate pilot programs as well as cooperative community ventures with social service agencies.
The Deutsch Institute supports Office of Developmental Program’s mission, vision, values and quality framework, and adopts the self-determination initiatives of PA.

Learning Job Skills at Keen Lake Camping & Cottage Resort
Today’s spotlight is on Chance, a recent graduate from Western Wayne High School. Chance wanted to gain some “hands-on” work experience to help prepare him for life after high school. The Deutsch Institute was able to find him a Paid Work Experience as a Grounds Keeper at Keen Lake Camping & Cottage Resort in Waymart. Every Monday, accompanied by his job coach, Chance works closely with the management and staff to prepare campsites for new arrivals.
